Responses

Through interneurons in the brain and spinal cord that connect sensory neurons and motor neurons
Through interneurons in the brain and spinal cord that connect sensory neurons and motor neurons

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
