Q

Effect of Nervous System on Muscle Contraction: What do afferent nervous system do?

A

The afferent nervous system conveys information from receptors in the periphery to the CNS

Information is processed by the CNS leading to a response

Q

Effect of Nervous System on Muscle Contraction: What does the efferent neurons do?

A

Information is processed by the CNS leading to a response

The efferent neurons convey the response from the CNS to skeletal muscles by way of the somatic nervous system
