The response of an effector is _____.
to provide a counter stimulus to neurons
to transmit a negative feedback impulse
to maintain homeostasis
to decrease the external stimulus
Internal and external stimulus in the body are detected by the receptors, which then sends signals to the central nervous system via sensory neurons, where the signals are interpreted and a response is coordinated by the brain. The response is the sent to the effector cells through the motor neuron where different actions are triggered.
Receptors are specialized cells that can detect changes in the environment called stimuli and convert them to impulses.
An effector refers to parts of the body generates response. These includes, muscles and glands. Muscles may respond by either contracting or relaxing to aid a certain response, while glands would respond by releasing hormones in the blood.
