Question about motor neuron and peripheral neuron

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-11-07] [Hit: ]
though, that what they mean by an autonomic motor neuron is what I would call a visceral motor neuron (these are the ones that innervate the heart and smooth muscles and synapse on an autonomic ganglion before reaching the end organ, for example), then I think youre right.......
which motor neuron 1.skeletal, 2.sensory,3.autonomic,4.both skeletal and autonomic must synapse on a peripheral neuron before reaching their effectors.

I thought the answer was 3. but not too sure and I can't locate the answer in my textbook or online.
any help would be appreciated.

These are not the terms I'm used to, but I tend to agree with you. I'm not even exactly sure what they mean by a 'sensory motor neuron', although I guess they're talking about afferent fibers...sometimes they try to simplify and wind up being more confusing.

Assuming, though, that what they mean by an 'autonomic motor neuron' is what I would call a visceral motor neuron (these are the ones that innervate the heart and smooth muscles and synapse on an autonomic ganglion before reaching the end organ, for example), then I think you're right.
