Detailed explanation-1: -Neurons are specialized cells that receive and send signals to other cells through fragile and thin cellular extensions called axons. These axons extend over distances long and short to reach their target, ultimately connecting neurons with other nerve tissue, muscle tissue, or sensory organs (Figure 1A).
Detailed explanation-2: -Nerves have cells called neurons. Neurons carry messages from the brain via the spinal cord. The neurons that carry these messages to the muscles are called motor neurons.
Detailed explanation-3: -Efferent, or motor, neurons transmit impulses from the CNS to effector organs such as muscles and glands. Efferent neurons usually have short dendrites and long axons.
Detailed explanation-4: -Transmitting Nerve Impulses The cell that sends the nerve impulse is called the presynaptic cell, and the cell that receives the nerve impulse is called the postsynaptic cell. Some synapses are purely electrical and make direct electrical connections between neurons. However, most synapses are chemical synapses.
Detailed explanation-5: -A motor neuron transmits impulses from a central area of the nervous system to an effector, such as a muscle.
