________ Carry Motor Information to Peripheral Effectors

Question

________ carry motor information to peripheral effectors.
A) Unipolar neurons
B) Efferent neurons
C) Multipolar neurons
D) Afferent neurons
E) Interneurons

Accepted Answer

Efferent neurons carry motor information away from the central nervous system and towards peripheral effectors such as muscles and glands. Afferent neurons carry sensory information towards the central nervous system. Unipolar neurons have only one neurite and are typically sensory neurons. Multipolar neurons have multiple neurites and are typically interneurons or motor neurons. Interneurons are neurons that communicate with other neurons and do not directly communicate with peripheral effectors.
