Mr. Warren has spinal cord damage that prevents nerve impulses from being
carried from the CNS to muscles or glands. What specific type of neuron has
been damaged?
Afferent neurons
Sensory neuron
Motor neuron
Axon terminals

Motor neurons have been damaged in Mr. Warren’s case. These neurons are responsible for carrying nerve impulses away from the central nervous system (CNS) to the muscles and glands. When they are impaired due to spinal cord damage, the brain’s ability to control muscle movements is hindered, leading to difficulties in coordination and mobility.

In this condition, Mr. Warren’s body may still receive sensory information (via afferent neurons), but without functional motor neurons, he won’t be able to respond with physical actions. This highlights the critical role motor neurons play in the neural pathway and the overall functioning of the nervous system.
