Cards (3)

  • sensory neurons send information from the senses to the brain. axons are short and dendrites are long.
  • relay neurons are mostly found in the brain/central nervous system - acting between the sensory and motor neurons. axons can be long or short and dendrites are short.
  • motor neurons send messages via long axons from the brain to the muscles or effectors. axons are long and dendrites are short.
