Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct pathway for signal flow in the vertebrate nervous system starts with a stimulus that is detected by sensory neurons. These neurons then relay the information to interneurons in the central nervous system, which process the information and send signals to motor neurons. Finally, motor neurons convey the signals to effectors (muscles or glands) to produce a response.
