Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The following structures for relaying the motor input from the spinal cord to the skeletal muscles: anterior horn, effector (skeletal muscles), spinal nerves, and anterior root.

Introduction:

Motor (or afferent) nerve impulses designate those impulses that are carried by the motor neurons. These neurons constitute the motor cranial (brain) or spinal nerves. Again, certain nerves also act as both sensory and motor nerves.
