Understand the role of neurons in the nervous system. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit information throughout the body.
Differentiate between the types of neurons based on the direction of signal transmission. Neurons can be classified as afferent, efferent, or interneurons.
Afferent neurons are responsible for carrying sensory signals from the peripheral parts of the body towards the central nervous system (CNS).
Efferent neurons, on the other hand, carry signals away from the CNS to effectors such as muscles and glands.
Interneurons are found within the CNS and are responsible for processing information and facilitating communication between afferent and efferent neurons.
