Does a nerve provided impulses for many muscle fibers or just few?

∙ 9y ago
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.

What muscle and nerve will you need to isolate to study the physiology of nerve fibers?
To study the physiology of nerve fibers, you would need to isolate a specific muscle and the nerve innervating that muscle. This allows for the investigation of the interaction between the nerve and muscle, observing the transmission of signals and studying the response of the muscle to nerve stimulation. Commonly studied muscles and nerves in this context include the gastrocnemius muscle and the sciatic nerve in animal models.
The abducens nerve supplies the?
The abducens is another nerve sending controlling impulses to an eyeball muscle.
Which of these parts receive nerve impulses from the central nerous system causing muscle fibers to contract?
The motor neurons carry impulses from the central nervous system to the muscles. These impulses may be generated autonomically (instinctively) or through voluntary control by the brain.
What minerals are needed for muscle contraction and conduction of nerve impulses?
phosphorous.
Animals are motile because they have?
nerve and muscle fibers.
Muscle fibers contract and relax in response to what?
nerve impulses
Which Mineral is necessary for transmission of nerve impulses in the nerve fibers?
Zinc
What part in the human body receives nerve impulses from the central nervous system that causes muscle fibers to contract?
Motor Neurons.
What carries odor impulses to the cerebrum for interpretation?
nerve fibers?
Is it true that motor neurons receive nerve impulses from the central nervous system causing muscle fibers to contract?
It would be more accurate to say that the neurons transmit the impulses, rather than that they receive them.
How fast nerve impulses travel?
Nerve impulses travel through nerve fibers, and the speed of which they travel depends on the type of nerve fiber. They travel usually around 86 miles per hour.
What is the optics?
It is a bundle of nerve fibers that carry electrical impulses to the brain from the retina.
What fibers are the most rapid nerve impulses conducted on?
These are nerves in animals. They include central and peripheral; peripheral include somatic and autonomic.
What is the primary role of muscle spindles?
the striated portions of the intrafusal fiber contract to keep the spindle taut at different muscle lengths. If the whole muscle is stretched, the muscle spindle is also stretched, triggering sensory nerve impulses on its nerve fiber. These sensory fibers synapse in the spinal chord with lower motor neurons leading back to the same muscle. Impulses triggered by stretch of the muscle spindle contract the skeletal muscle.

What muscle or gland cell receives nerve impulses?
I believe it is the Neuron?
