Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autonomic motor neurons must synapse with a peripheral neuron, such as a ganglionic neuron, before reaching their effector organs. Somatic motor neurons, which primarily control skeletal muscle movements, have a direct connection between the CNS and the muscles they innervate. Sensory neurons transmit sensory information from the periphery to the CNS.
