Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A motor neuron transmits impulses from a central area of the nervous system to an effector, such as a muscle.
Detailed explanation-2: -Motor neurons These neurons transmit impulses from the spinal cord to skeletal and smooth muscles (such as those in your stomach), and so directly control all of our muscle movements.
Detailed explanation-3: -Motor neurons carry instructions from the brain along axons that stretch from the spinal cord to the muscles in the hands and feet. In diseases eg spinal muscular atrophy, motor neuron axons become damaged and degenerate, which means signals from the brain never reach the muscles and movement becomes impaired.
