Unlike this fission bomb, the hydrogen bomb functions by the fusion, or joining together, of lighter elements into heavier elements. The end product again weighs less than its components, the difference once more appearing as energy.
Report Abuse. Afferent pathways send information to your central nervous system (CNS), or peripheral nervous system (PNS). Efferent pathways send signals from those two locations to your muscles. Taste, sight, hearing, etc. are all afferent pathways. A reflex arc, or simply reflex, is then caused by an afferent pathway signaling to the PNS (Spinal cord), which then immediately signals muscles to react.
Anatomy. The Glossopharyngeal Nerve is the ninth of the Twelve Cranial Nerves. The fibers consist of efferent motoric and parasympathetic fibers and afferent sensory fibers.In this article, the pathway of the efferent and afferent fibers will be discussed.he pathway for the afferent fibers of the glossopharyngeal nerve is the following (from the initiation in the periphery to the termination in the brain): 1  The tuberial nerve (as part of the tympanic plexus) supplies the auditory canal and the pharyngeal orifice.
