There are two main types of neurons:
Sensory neurons carry signals from the outer parts of your body (periphery) into the central nervous system.
Motor neurons (motoneurons) carry signals from the central nervous system to the outer parts (muscles, skin, glands) of your body
The motor neurons are specified to send messages away from the Central Nervous System. The sensory neurons are specified in the senses of taste, touch, hearing, smell, and sight. They send messages from the sensory receptors to the Central Nervous System.
the sensory neuron has sensory skin cell at the end of it, it is liked by a dendrom and then a celll body and axon.
while the motor neurns has dendrites to collect impulse from others, it has a cell body and a axon that passes the impulses to affected cell.
