What are axons that conduct impulses from the cerebrum to lower parts of the CNS?
Axons that conduct impulses from the cerebrum to lower parts of the central nervous system (CNS) are called descending axons. These axons transmit motor commands and information from the brain down to the spinal cord and other lower regions of the CNS. They play a crucial role in controlling voluntary movement and coordinating various bodily functions.
Do axons receive impulses toward the body cells?
No, axons transmit impulses away from the body cells. Dendrites receive impulses from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body, and then the axon carries the impulse away from the cell body to other neurons or to muscles or glands.
What conducts impulses toward the cell body?
Dendrites conduct impulses toward the cell body, having synapsed with the axons of other neurons.
What are the roles of the axon dendrite?
A very basic explanation would say that axons are the structures of neurons that conduct electrical impulses ("messages") away from the cell body, and that dendrites are the structures of neurons that conduct electrical impulses toward the cell body.
Which way does a dendrite conduct nerve impulses to the cell body?
the dendrites pick up msgs from other neurons lying nearby.they pass the msg to the cellbody, and then along the axon, the axon might then pass it on to another neurones. from the receptorto the sensory neuron to the relay neurons to the motor neuron to the muscle
Saltatory conduction refers to the conduction of impulses in?
It is the "skipping" pattern that impulses follow to travel down nerve axons.
Does impulse travel faster along myelinated neuron?
Yes, impulses travel faster in myelinated axon rather than in unmyelinated. It is mostly due to nodes of Ranvier. Instead of travel along the axon, in myelinated axon impulses "jump" from node to node. Also there are two types of myelinated axons: type A and type B. (Type C in unmyelinated axon.) Type A is the fastest among all of them.
Do Axons carries impulses toward the nerve cell body?
No, axons carry impulses away from the nerve cell body.
What are Nadis?
Nadis are nerves. Prana Shakti is supposed to flow through the nadis which means the electrical impulses that travel through the axons.
What direction does nerve impulse travel?
Along a nerve cell, the impulse travels from the axon to the dendrites and then again to the axons through the synapse.
Does a dendrite carry impulses away?
They carry impulses to the cell body. Axons carry impulses away from the cell body.
What is the association of axons with nerves?
Axons conduct the nerve impulses, or action potentials, to the axon terminals and the synaptic cleft.
What nerve processes transport impulses to the cell body?
Axons are the nerve processes that transport impulses to the cell body.
Where do faster neural impulses occur?
They occur in insulated or myelinated axons.
What portion a neuron conducts nerve impulses away from the neuron?
axons
What provides for the transmission of nerve impulses way from the cell body?
'Axons'
How do nerve cell works?
The dendrites of one neuron send electrical impulses called synapses to the axons of other neurons to transport information.
