Connect neurons within the spinal cord

2

Where are relay neurons mainly located?

a

In the CNS to transfer impulses between sensory and motor neurons

b

In autonomic ganglia

c

At neuromuscular junctions

d

In peripheral nerves

3

What is the function of a motor neuron?

a

Relay signals within the brain only

b

Carry impulses to sensory receptors

c

Transmit impulses from receptors to the CNS

d

Carry impulses from the CNS to muscles or glands

4

Which neuron type conducts impulses toward the CNS?

a

Motor neuron

b

Glial cell

c

Sensory neuron

d

Relay neuron

5

Which neuron type conducts impulses away from the CNS to effectors?

a

Relay neuron

b

Interneuronal glia

c

Sensory neuron

d

Motor neuron

6

In a reflex arc, which neuron type is typically located in the CNS to connect incoming and outgoing signals?

a

Sensory neuron

b

Relay neuron

c

Motor neuron

d

Epileptic neuron

7

True or False: Sensory neurons have cell bodies in the dorsal root ganglia outside the CNS.

a

False

b

Only in the brain

c

Only during development

d

True

8

True or False: Motor neurons always have longer dendrites than axons.

a

Only in muscles

b

False

c

Only in neurons of the brain

d

True

9

Which statement best describes relay neurons?

a

They transmit signals from the brain to limbs only

b

They connect sensory and motor neurons within the CNS

c

They are found only in peripheral nerves

d

They release hormones to regulate neurons

10

Which feature helps speed up signal transmission in neurons of these types?

a

Myelination of the axon

b

Lack of synapses

c

Absence of dendrites

d

Smaller cell bodies

Feedback

1

Sensory neurons carry messages from receptors to the CNS, not away from it.

2

Relays operate inside the CNS to pass signals from sensory to motor neurons.

3

Motor neurons send commands from the CNS to effectors like muscles.

4

Sensory neurons transmit toward the CNS; motor neurons transmit away from it.

5

Motor neurons carry signals from the CNS to muscles or glands.

6

Relay (interneurons) connect sensory input to motor output within the CNS.

7

Sensory neuron cell bodies are located in dorsal root ganglia outside the CNS.

8

Generally, axons are long and transmit impulses; dendrites are shorter structures.

9

Relays act as interneurons inside the CNS, bridging sensory and motor neurons.

10

Myelin sheaths insulate axons, increasing conduction speed across sensory, relay, and motor neurons.

You can integrate the game into an LMS compatible with LTI 1.1 or LTI 1.3 such as Canvas, Moodle, or Blackboard. This way, the scores will be automatically saved into the platform’s gradebook.
