motoneuron
A motoneuron is a type of nerve cell that is involved in the sending of messages from the central nervous system to muscles in the body, causing them to contract or relax. This neuron, also known as a motor neuron, is responsible for controlling voluntary and involuntary movements. They play a crucial role in physical action and motor function. Dysfunction or disease of motoneurons can lead to conditions such as muscular dystrophy and ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).
