The peripheral nervous system of vertebrate animals
includes three kinds of nerve
cells: sensory neurons, which transmit impulses from sensory receptor structures to the brain; motor neurons, which innervate the striated, or
skeletal,
muscles, and autonomic neurons, which regulate the functional activity of the circulatory system, the organs, the glands and the smooth
muscles (such as those of the intestine).
