Explanation

Effectors are tissues or organs that respond to signals from the nervous system or hormones by producing a specific action or response. Muscles are one of the primary effectors in the body.

Muscles play a crucial role in various physiological processes, including voluntary movements, reflex actions, and the regulation of body temperature.
