What pathway does a nerve impulse follow after initiated into a receptor?
nerve my a$$ nerve
Does the stimulation of a nerve occur in the tract?
no, receptor
How are neural impulses generated?
The neural impulse is the electrical charge that goes from the nerve receptor to the brain. They are generated when the nerve receptor detects a foreign stimuli.
What type receptor is present in the cardiac wall and responds to stimulation by the vagus nerve?
Muscarinic Receptor
Which substances are found on cell surfaces and respond to nerve and hormone signals?
Receptor molecules are found on cell surfaces and respond to nerve and hormone signals.
How do you locate receptor sites when transmitting a nerve cell?
Synapse
What is the difference between a stimulus impulse receptor and effector?
A Receptor is referring to a sense organ, like a nerve ending. An Effector is referring to a muscle capable of reflecting to a stimulus. By definition, receptor and effector are antonyms.
Where can you see adaptation of the nerve cells in the simple sensory receptor?
in the liver
What cell part receives nerve impulses and hormones from other?
receptor molecules on cell membranes receptor molecules on cell membranes
What is the simplest type of sensory receptor?
Free Nerve Endings are the simplest receptors.
Which receptor element is mainly damaged in nerve-type hearing loss?
Organ of Corti
How nerve impulsive are transmitted from the receptor to central nervous system to effectors?
Nerve impulses are transmitted from the receptor to the central nervous system via sensory neurons. In the central nervous system, the impulse is processed and may be relayed to motor neurons that carry the impulse to effectors such as muscles or glands to produce a response. This pathway allows for communication and coordination between different parts of the body.
