Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Somatic motor neurons use a single-neuron pathway to connect the spinal cord to the effector organ. They are responsible for voluntary movements and use acetylcholine as their neurotransmitter, not epinephrine. Collateral ganglia are part of the sympathetic nervous system, not the somatic nervous system.
