D
Relay neurons
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
The cells responsible for transmitting messages to the effectors are motor neurons.
- Motor neurons: Carry signals from the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to effectors (muscles or glands), causing responses.
- Sensory neurons: Carry signals from sensory receptors to the central nervous system.
- Hair cells: Sensory receptors in the inner ear for hearing and balance.
- Relay neurons (interneurons): Connect sensory neurons to motor neurons within the central nervous system.
