Detailed explanation-1: -An effector is a part of the body which can respond to a stimulus according to the instructions sent from the nervous system (spinal cord and brain). Example: Glands and muscles.
Detailed explanation-2: -Skin, eye, ear, nose, and tongue are all examples of receptors. Effectors are either muscles or glands. (c) Motor nerve and sensory nerve. Motor neurons are neurons that carry motor impulses from the central nervous system to specific effectors.
Detailed explanation-3: -The two examples of effectors are muscle and glands. Muscle and glands are the effector organs that receive the impulse from the brain and spinal cord through the motor neurons to take an action on the stimuli received from the surrounding.
Detailed explanation-4: -Effector neurons go from the CNS to a gland or muscle to cause it to do something (e.g., secrete a hormone, contract a muscle, etc.) Affector neurons go from the peripheral nervous system to the CNS (e.g., a sensory cell in the skin or eye).
