1 Efferent neurons (also called motor neurons) carry signals from the gray matter of the CNS through the nerves of the peripheral nervous system to effector cells. 2  The effector may be smooth, cardiac, or skeletal muscle tissue or glandular tissue. Afferent, Efferent, and Mixed Nerves. 2  Some of the nerves in the body are specialized for carrying information in only one direction, similar to a one-way street. 3  Nerves that carry information from sensory receptors to the central nervous system only are called afferent nerves.
1 Each branch is called a dendrite. 2  Dendrites receive information from other neurons or from sense organs. 3  The single long fiber that extends from the neuron is called an axon. 4  Axons send information to other neurons, to muscle cells, or to gland cells. 5  What we call nerves are bundles of axons coming from many neurons.hey communicate with one another, with cells in the sensory organs, and with muscles and glands. Each neuron has the same structure: 1  Each neuron has a soma, or cell body, which is the central area of the neuron.
