What is the work of neuron?
They transmit nerve impulses and stimuli.
Does a sensory neuron transmit afferent impulses to the cns?
True
Which neuron delivers sensations to the cns?
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
What are nerve cells specialized to receive and conduct electrical impulses?
Neurons transmit nerve impulses/ electric impulses throughout the body.
What nervous system cells do not transmit impulses?
Glial cells as they are responsible for providing support to the neuron, nourishing, and making sure homeostasis is maintained, thus they do not transmit impulses.
Which part of the neuron acts as a receiver for nerve impulses?
potassuimaxon terminals transmit info from their neuron to another, while dendrites receive info from other neurons.
In a neuron impulses move?
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
What part of the neuron carries impulses to the neuron?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
Define a sensory motor and connecting neuron?
Sensory Êmotor is aÊnerve cellÊ that transmit impulses from the central nervous system to muscular or glandular tissues. On the other hand a connecting neuron is a nerve cell that connects sensory and Êmotor neuron.
What is the neuron that conducts impulses towards the periphery?
The efferent neuron carries impulses towards the periphery.
What happens when schwann cells are killed in the humman body?
the human body does not have the ability to receive or transmit neuron impulses any more. Hope this helps
The cellular unit of the nervous system is the neuron What is the major function of this cell type?
Transmit messages (nerve impulses) from one part of the body to another
