Source sentences:
text: A motor neuron transmits impulses from a central area of the nervous system to an effector, such as a muscle.
text: Neurons are classified according to their position in a reflex arc: afferent, or sensory, neurons receive information from the external environment or from receptor cells; interneurons, or internuncial neurons, connect one neuron with another; efferent neurons transmit impulses to the organs of response (for example, motoneurons innervate muscles).
text: Lower motor neurons transmit impulses via spinal peripheral nerves or cranial nerves to skeletal muscles.
text: Sensory neurons receive stimuli from the external environment; interneurons (or association neurons) connect sensory and motor neurons and carry stimuli in the brain and spinal cord; motor neurons transmit impulses from the brain and spinal cord to the muscle or gland that will respond to the stimulus.
