Somatic nervous system
Neural control of voluntary effectors: (skeletal muscles)
single neuron having its cell body within the CNS and send axon to skeletal
motor neuron
muscles
Effect of denervation skeletal muscles enter a state of flaccid paralysis and atrophy.
(Nerve damage)
release of acetylcholine (ACh) from somatic motor neurons ➔ stimulates
neurotransmitter
the effector organ (skeletal muscles).
