They are sensory input, integration, and motor output. It sends signals to the brain.

What is the response of an effector?
to provide a counter stimulus to neurons i hope this helped ^^
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
What is the chain of events for a conscious response starting with stimulus?
It is called the response chain If u want the equation. Is: situmles-receptor -sensory neurons - CNS(central nervous system brain & spinal cords )- motor neurons - effctors - response
When leg muscles respond to a stimulus by moving the foot this response depends on the function of?
Nerves
A rapid simple automatic response that involves few neurons is?
A reflex action is a fast, automatic response to a stimulus by an effector organ i.e. a muscle.
How many functions of neurons in the nervous system?
Neurons are pathways for electrical messages to pass through. Their main function is to pass a message from one neuron to another. As a whole, they transmit these messages between a receptor (something that picks up a stimulus. A stimulus includes things such as temperature, pressure, pain etc.), the brain and an effector (something which carries out the response to the stimulus). There are three main types of neurons: Sensory neurons - receive message from receptor and transmit it to the -> Interneurons - receive message from sensory neurons and pass it on to the brain*. The brain responds and the interneurons pass the message on to the -> Motor neurons - receive message from interneurons and pass it on to an effector. *In the case of a reflex arc, where there is an unconscious response (e.g. touching a hot object) the message will bypass the brain and go straight from receptor to sensory to interneuron to motor to effector.
What is the relationship between a stimulus and a nerve impulse?
The neuron is the functional portion of the central nervous system, carrying impulses to the designated location. Neurons also have the role of interpreting an impulse, and waiting for a response. Neurons fall under the category of sensory neurons, interneurons and motor neurons.
How do sensory neurons motor neurons and interneurons work together to produce a response to an environmental stimulus?
This forms what is called a reflex arc. If you would touch a very hot pan, your body will respond very fast to remove your hand before it burns badly. If you had to think about it, the burn would be more severe. So this bypassed the brain and is called a reflex arc. Sensory neurons sends info into the central nervous system (CNS), passes the info to the interneuron and it passes that to the motor neuron. The interneuron also send info to the brain and you note that "that is hot!". If you pay attention to this, you will see that you will remove your hand before you feel the burn.
What is the relationship between a stimulus and a reponse?
The stimulus is your bodies reaction to something, say you burnt your hand, this is the stimulus. The reaction is your bodies response to it. In this sense the stimulus will be sensed by sensory neurones which pass an electrical impulse through relay neurons until the impulse gets to the Central Nervous System. This then, gives out another impulse which travels down a Motor Neuron to the muscle telling your hand to be removed from the surface.....
Which neurons decide about the action for a certain stimulus?
Sensory neuron
What are the neurons that conduct impulses from a ganglion?
I'm not really sure what your asking...but a neuron sends an impulse because of a stimulus from the enviroment. The sensory neurons then pick up that stimulus and send the impulse down and it leaves through the axon where it is then pick up by another neurons dendrites.
What cells type is the conductive cell of nervous system?
The cells of the nervous system are called neurons, which convert a stimulus into electrochemical signals.
