Sensory input travels along these tracts toward the brain, and motor output travels from the brain along these tracts toward skeletal muscles and other effector tissues. The gray matter of the spinal cord receives and integrates incoming and outgoing information.
A pathway is the connection formed by axons that project from neurons. The sensory nerve is a nerve that carries sensory toward the central nervous system. In addition, your motor nerve is the nerve located in the central nervous system as well. But it’s usually the spinal cord that sends motor signals to the muscles of the body.
