Signals from sensory neurons do not get sent to motor neurons
Signals from sensory neurons do not get sent to motor neurons

Signals move from dendrite to dendrite towards motor neurons
Signals move from dendrite to dendrite towards motor neurons

Motor neurons signal for the body to move the signal toward them

A dendrite is a branched, tree-like structure that extends from the cell body of a neuron. It receives incoming signals from other neurons and carries those signals toward the cell body. Dendrites play a crucial role in the transmission of information within the nervous system.
