What is the name of the region where two neurons are in done contact is known as?

synapse is that junction through which impulse can be transmitted from one neuron to another.


How is a message transmitted through a glass fiber?

Different types of information are transmitted from one place to another by signals of light pulses through optical fibers.


What is the space through which a nerve impulse passes from one nerve cell to another called?

A nerve impulse passes from an axon terminal of one neuron to another neuron across a synaptic gap.


Why the transmission of nerve impulse is faster in medullated nerve fiber than in non-medullated nerve fiber?

generally the impulse is nothing but the stimulus carried to a part of body to carry out specific action in response to that stimulus.it is transmitted from one neuron to another or one neuron to another organ.this is carried all along the neuron and at the end that is at the synapse it gets diffused in neurotransmitter and again transmitted to another organ or neuron.this is carried very faster.this is started polarization of neuron and once polarized and being transmitted it cant be again polarizedthis occurs even more fastly in .mylenated neurons than in nonmylenated.bec in mylenated neurons the axon is partly covered by myleinshreath.this myleinshreath has a special property that it doesn't allow ions to pass through it.since polarization is occurred due to movement of ions in and out of axons,and the mylein shreath doesn't allow this the leaping of ions occurs.and as a result impulse been transmitted as a loop of current by taking leap at mylein shreath.while in nonmylenated ones no such leaping occurs and it is transmitted slowly all along the length of axon.so impulse transmission occurs very fast in mylenated ones.


Which travels quicker through the body a nerve impulse or a hormons?

a nerve impulse

What is a nerve message called?

Well they are sent through the nervous system.


What is an example of integration by the nervous system?

Example: when you step on a nail, your body perceives a stimulus (change in external or internal environment) receptor is the specific thing identifying stimulus, in this case, the skin, then a nervous impulse is generated and is transmitted through a chain of neurons towards central nervous system, sent to the brain where the impulse is interpreted (integration) by the brain, brain will send off new impulse via motor neurons through spinal cord through nerve to muscle to carry out response.


How is scrapie transmitted?

It is transmitted through feed contaminated with nervous tissue. It can also be transmitted through pasture infected with placental tissue from infected sheep.


What is the name of the region where two neurons are in done contact is known as?

synapse is that junction through which impulse can be transmitted from one neuron to another.


Which structure if the neuron transmits an impulse through the myelin sheath?

Neural impulses (action potentials) are transmitted through axons which are covered in a myelin sheath for insulation.


The process by which neural impulses are transmitted through the nervous system is best described as?

The process by which neural impulses are transmitted through the nervous system is best described as electric impulses. Any damage to a nerve in the system will cause a breakdown in communication between nerve ending and the brain.


What is the path that nervous impulse takes through the nervous system?

sensory neurone --> enters spinal cord --> relay neurone --> brain(is not a reflex action) or motor neurone(if action is reflex)


How impulses are transmitted and generated?

the brain sends electrical shocks through our nervous system that tells our body how to move, and when to do it.


If A nerve impulse travels through your nervous system at an avg rate of 132 m per s How much time does it take for an impulse a distance of 1.49 m to reach your brain?

11 mS


How gastroenteritis transmitted?

Gastroenteritis is transmitted by fecal-oral route. Feces are transmitted to another person through infected water, hands or flies.

What is the relationship between a stimulus and a reponse?

The stimulus is your bodies reaction to something, say you burnt your hand, this is the stimulus. The reaction is your bodies response to it. In this sense the stimulus will be sensed by sensory neurones which pass an electrical impulse through relay neurons until the impulse gets to the Central Nervous System. This then, gives out another impulse which travels down a Motor Neuron to the muscle telling your hand to be removed from the surface.....
