what does an efferent pathway consist of
Report Abuse. Afferent pathways send information to your central nervous system (CNS), or peripheral nervous system (PNS). Efferent pathways send signals from those two locations to your muscles. Taste, sight, hearing, etc. are all afferent pathways. A reflex arc, or simply reflex, is then caused by an afferent pathway signaling to the PNS (Spinal cord), which then immediately signals muscles to react.
