1 of 5
Role of Motor Neurone?
Send messages towards effectors
2 of 5
Role of Sensory Neurone?
Send messages from senses towards central nervous system
3 of 5

Send messages between sensory and motor neurons
4 of 5
Function of Myelin sheath
Improves speed of neural impulse transmissions along the axon. It serves as an electrical insulator preventing the dispersion of the impulse to other structures. Neural impulse jumps from 1 node to another, increasing speed of neutral transmission
