Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Effectors are structures that ultimately carry out a response or action in response to a stimulus. Body tissues, such as muscles and glands, are considered effectors because they are activated by motor neurons to produce a response. Sensory neurons and neurotransmitters are not effectors as they do not produce a response on their own. Interneurons are not effectors as they are involved in processing and relaying information within the nervous system, but do not directly produce a response in the body.
