A neuron will generate action potentials when it?
A neuron will generate action potential when it is stimulated by a neurotransmitter.
What do resting and action potentials depend on?
The resting and action potentials depend on the balance of charges of the area outside the neuron and inside the neuron. A resting potential is when the neuron is more negatively (approximately -70mv) charged than the area outside the neuron. The action potential occurs when sodium ions rush into the neuron, causing the polarity to be reversed. When there is no difference in charge between the area inside the neuron and the area outside the neuron, no action potentials can be started by that neuron.
Which neurons decide about the action for a certain stimulus?
Sensory neuron
What causes the vesicles inside a neuron to fuse with the plasma membrane?
An action potential in the neuron
What does communication in the nervous system depend on which are electrical impulses that travel from neuron to neuron?
action potentials
Can reflex actions be carried out without the involvement of a neuron?
No, neurons are still involved. But in some cases, the signal doesn't travel all the way to the brain.
How is the neuron carried messages from another neuron if there is a space between them?
axon and sypanes
A neuron will generate action potentials when it?
A neuron will generate action potential when it is stimulated by a neurotransmitter.
Spontaneous firing rate of a neuron?
a periodic production of action potentials even without synaptic input

Why are motor neuron ofter referred to as the action cell?
it is often termed the action neuron because it tells the muscles what to do or how to react.
Which neurons decide about the action for a certain stimulus?
Sensory neuron
What causes the vesicles inside a neuron to fuse with the plasma membrane?
An action potential in the neuron
When you touch something hot a neuron in you finger senses the temperature which happens first?
an action forms
Transmit neural messages from neuron to neuron?
Neurons send messages by way of chemical signalers called neurotransmitters. An activated neuron releases neurotransmitters and their collective action can stimulate another neuron. These individual firing sequences are called action potentials.
What cell that generates action potential?
neuron
What does communication in the nervous system depend on which are electrical impulses that travel from neuron to neuron?
action potentials
