Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Afferent neurons carry sensory information from the body to the brain or spinal cord, which is what is happening when you read a question and your nervous system sends the information from your eyes to your brain. Efferent neurons carry motor information from the brain or spinal cord to the muscles and glands. Nodes are not directly involved in the transmission of information, and glial cells primarily provide support and protection to neurons.
