A good mnemonic for afferent and efferent neurons is: Afferent neurons Arrive to the CNS and Efferent neurons Exit the CNS Hope this helps!

[@letscollect7875]

Thanks 🙂💝

thaaannnnnkkkkk yooouuu

[@Bhuji]

I study using etymology because i wish to know how everything was named :D The word "cerebrum" is the Latin word for "brain." The Romans used the same word to refer to the "skull" (which houses the brain) and the "head" (which houses the skull). ... The word "cerebrate", meaning "to use the mind or think", comes from the Latin "cerebrum." mid 19th century: from Latin afferent- ‘bringing towards’, from the verb afferre, from ad- ‘to’ + ferre ‘bring’. mid 19th century: from Latin efferent- ‘carrying out’, from the verb efferre, from ex- ‘out’ + ferre ‘carry’. Cranium late Middle English: via medieval Latin from Greek kranion ‘skull’. Pons late 17th century: from Latin, literally ‘bridge’, (in full) ‘bridge of Varolius’, named after C. Varoli (1543-75), Italian anatomist. Medulla late Middle English (in the sense ‘bone marrow’): from Latin, ‘pith or marrow’. late 19th century: from Greek neuron, special use of the literal sense ‘sinew, tendon’. See nerve. late Middle English (also in the sense ‘tendon, sinew’): from Latin nervus ; related to Greek neuron ‘nerve’ (see neuron). late Middle English: from French or medieval Latin tendo(n- ), translating Greek tenōn ‘sinew’, from teinein ‘to stretch’. Old English sin(e)we ‘tendon’, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch zeen and German Sehne . late Middle English: shortening of Old French espine, or from Latin spina ‘thorn, prickle, backbone’.

Really helpful! Keep it up!! Thanks so much for the videos. Really helped with A&P.

[@mercedescullinan3601]

Will you make a video going more into detail regarding the hemispheres and the different layers that surround/protect the brain. ie, meningeal, epidymal, and all the sub layers? Thanks!

[@Pisceswildfire]

Absolutely loooove Khan Academy's videos, they help me understand everything. Just wanted to say that this guy sounds like Cleveland from Cleveland Show, which keeps it interesting for me :D Keep it up!

[@alexanderjoseph5285]

Eva I love this videos too

[@aardrarageesh6525]

This is really informative and entertaining at the same time... thanks for your good work

[@sabrinafaer1173]

Well done and thank you! Man...this is a complex piece of our anatomy and something I need to understand better. This was a great place to start...you speak slowly with passion in your voice and deliberately as well. I enjoyed it...

[@studentnursesaima5836]

That's funny, because I speed it up to X2. It makes me pay attention and watch so I can understand what he is saying. If I watch it normal speed, it is too slow for me.

[@sydthesadman]

And why do we have schools when we have this ? Oooooh the depression and anxiety....

[@yakobushimada7187]

lmao

[@ricksanchez5595]

school isn't about fact learning. its about communication and daily planning. preparing you for your future

[@Jok.r]

@@ricksanchez5595 what future? 😂😂

[@Heddyanne]

It is just amazing what you do here. I just love all these videos. I understand more of myself, of other people and simply - life. Thank you.

[@tammym6394]

No need for teachers in the US or anywhere in the world. Education should be offered online, and these videos from Khan Academy will make the student successful. Love the videos.

[@Keriys]

What my teacher taught in 3 1hr lectures that I could not understand at all, to watching this 9min video and learnt everything she was trying to teach, Thank you!

It's really funny how I'm having a test tomorrow in the very different language and still watching this in English

[@methylators]

If Khan Academy had the graphic design of PragerU, the world would be a much happier place.

[@maddieek6865]

is there any recommendation on how to watch these? Like take notes during or focus on the video?

[@user-kr4vl8xl5w]

Amazing explaining 👍🏻🌹

[@jadenlian9010]

Bruhhh this here is some good sh*t

[@Starkid28]

Omg can this guy say "nerves" one more time please? 7:00

[@Arham1716]

It is really important to Identify the parts of brain Kr otherwise It would cause serious complications If we further study on brain and that's What U have done U really love tht way U teach in detail

[@SocksKr]

the way i remember the diff between afferent and efferent is by the definition of Effervesce. When you look up the words definition on google it's this: Effervesce: ef·fer·vesce /ˌefərˈves/ Learn to pronounce verb 1. (of a liquid) give off bubbles. Sooo, efferent nerves effervesce action potentials away from the central nervous system

[@rishabhpandey4409]

Amazing concept🎉❤❤❤

[@milesedgeworth5328]

Nerves the way he pronounces it lol Thanks for the vid

[@abelhapedras]

[@etchieumali162]

Good review

[@isabelladavis6546]

efferent motor neurons are ventral on the dorsal root; whereas afferent sensory nerves are dorsal on the dorsal root

[@an-ub8kv]

I actually really like his voice

[@PetrFlosman]

Please, where can i find this video (and other neuronal system videos) on KhanAcademy website?

[@Asianalexfn.]

yes

[@jobtabanda2664]

how many ways can you arrange the parts of the structure of nervous system?

[@repentance1748]

ill pray for you Khan. I just dont think thank you is enough. I think we should pay you instead of those teacher we have.

If you find his voice slightly monotone and hard to listen to, change the speed to 1.25. He sounds more upbeat but it's still at a pace that you can follow.

[@faizahasan4855]

You sound like a cowboy. Which is nice. :P

[@nasirdjedi8962]
