PNR 140 Exam 1 Questions with Correct Answers 100% Verified afferent division - Correct Answer carries sensory information from PNS sensory receptors to CNS efferent division - Correct Answer carries motor commands from CNS to PNS muscles and glands reflex arc - Correct Answer A relatively direct connection between a sensory neuron and a motor neuron that allows an extremely rapid response to a stimulus, often without conscious brain involvement. sympathetic nervous system - Correct An...

Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) Correct Answer-the sensory and motor neurons that connect the central nervous system (CNS) to the rest of the body. What are the two major nerves that exist in the peripheral nervous system? Correct Answer-spinal nerves (carry information to and from the spinal cord) and cranial nerves (carry information to and from the brain) Divisions of the peripheral nervous system Correct Answer-the sensory (afferent) and motor (efferent division) Sensory (afferent) ...
