The combination of a neuron and the muscle fibers it associates with is called?
Motor unit = the single motor neuron and the multiple muscle fibers that it innervates.
The response of a motor unit to a single action potential of its motor neuron is called?
muscle twitch
Skeletal muscle fiber is controlled by a motor neuron at a single?
Each muscle cell is only innervated by a single motor neuron, but each motor neuron innervates any number of muscle cells. When an action potential travels down the axon of an alpha motor neuron, it will depolarize several muscle cells at the same time, a phenomenon known as summation.
The motor neuron and the muscle fiber it controls constitute a what?
Motor Unit :)
A motor neuron and all the muscle cells that is stimulates are referred to as a motor and plate?
false, it would be a motor unit.
The combination of a neuron and the muscle fibers it associates with is called?
Motor unit = the single motor neuron and the multiple muscle fibers that it innervates.
What reflex does a a sensory neuron synapses directly on a motor neuron?
Monosynaptic reflex
What motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates called?
the motor unit
What is a motor unit is made up of?
Motor neurons and the muscle fibers they transmit signals toA motor unit is a collection of muscle fibers that contract as a single functional unit when stimulated by an impulse from a motor neuron. The actual size can vary greatly, from many large muscle fibers in the quadriceps muscle group per motor unit to just a few muscle fibers in the muscles of the fingers per motor unit.
Response of a motor unit to a single action potential of it motor neuron is called?
muscle twitch
The response of a motor unit to a single action potential of its motor neuron is called?
muscle twitch
What is the name of the point at which motor neuron synapses motor end plate?
cappilaries is the name of the point at which motor neuron synases motor end plate
Skeletal muscle fiber is controlled by a motor neuron at a single?

Each skeletal muscle fiber is controlled by a motor neuron at a single?
neuromuscular junction
What is a motor neuron attached to?
A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.
A single neuron and all the muscle fibers it stimulates comprise a?
This is called a motor unit.
What is the job of his motor neurons?
controls musclesRelay messages from the Brain in the CNS down through the Spinal Cord and into the PNS, from there the motor neuron synapses on muscle fibers. i.e. knee jerk reflex & the neuromuscular junction.
