Efferent

At these elevated levels, angiotensin II also constricts the afferent arteriole into the glomerulus in addition to the efferent arteriole it normally constricts.

GVA fibers on the superior surface follow the course of the sympathetic efferent nerves back to the CNS, while GVA fibers on the inferior portion of the bladder follow the course of the parasympathetic efferents.

In these patients, maintenance of GFR depends on angiotensin-II-dependent efferent vasomotor tone.

The hair cells are unspecialized, innervated by both afferent and efferent nerve fibres, and respond only to low frequencies.

The medulla oblongata then distributes messages along motor or efferent nerves belonging to the autonomic nervous system to a wide variety of effector organs, whose activity is consequently changed to reverse the error in the blood pressure.

The nerves connect the spinal cord with skin, joints, muscles etc. and allow for the transmission of efferent motor as well as afferent sensory signals and stimuli.

These include: * General visceral efferent (GVE) — provides parasympathetic innervation to glands of mucous membranes of the pharynx, larynx, organs in the neck, thorax, and abdomen.

Thus they are synonymous with efferent nerves.
