Do Signals travel along nerves in the form of rapidly diffusing neurotransmitters?
yes bcoz of myelin sheaths on the neurons .. they help the signal to move by jumping ... so that it moves faster with the help of neurotransmitters like acetyl choline .which helps in fast coduction of nerve impulse ..they r found generally at nerve endings to transfer the signal from 1 neuron to other.
What is the layer of insulation found on nerves?
Myelin Sheath
What is a steriod made by the body and used by nerve cells?
protein Either you have Miss Kammerer, or my bio teacher ripped off this site.
What susbstance is found in synaptic vesicles of axon terminal?
Neurotransmiter, which may be Acetylcholine etc
State the structure of neurons which reduces leakage of impulses?
Myelin sheath, which is only found on long axons (white matter), not on short cortical neurons (grey matter).
What are the contributions of schwanna in the cell theory?
Schwann cels make the myelin shealth that facilitate with neuron message transport
Are impulses conducted rapidly if neurotransmitters are present?
Myelin
In a typical neuron sheaths of fatty tissue are called?
In a typical neuron, sheaths of fatty tissue are called the Myelin sheath. The myelin sheath surrounds parts of the axon of a nerve cell which speeds up neurotransmitters.
Are there neurotransmitters in our intestines and organs?
Yes, neurotransmitters are found wherever nerves are found.
Do neurotransmitters form the myelin sheath?
No, neurotransmitters do not form the myelin sheath. Myelin is formed by specialized types of glial cells called oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that are released by neurons to transmit signals across synapses.

Where are neurotransmitters found in the body?
Neurotransmitters are found in the axonal terminals of a neuron in the peripheral nervous system (or PNS). An example of a neurotransmitter is neurepinephrin.
What is the insulating layer found on the nerves?
Myelin Sheath
What is the layer of insulation found on nerves?
Myelin Sheath
Have amino acid neurotransmitters not been found yet although a variety of molecules act as neurotransmitters?
False
Where are nodes of ranvier found?
In the fatty myelin sheath there are gaps between the axons. The myelin sheath gaps are referred to as the nodes of Ranvier.
What are the gaps found along along a myelin sheath?
node of ranvier
