3 Types of Neurons
  • Sensory (Afferent) Neurons-
  • Motor (Efferent) Neuron-
  • Interneuron-
  • Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)- controls involuntary muscles, organs, and glands; reacts to stress
  • Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)-
  • Somatic Nervous System-
  • Sensory Pathway-
  • Motor Pathway-
  • Sympathetic Division-
