Yes a neuron will always respond to the binding of neurotransmitters released from another cell (synaptic transmission being the 'impulse'). Depending on which neurotransmitter was bound, the postsynaptic potential of the membrane will become either more positive or more negative. It is the summation of these inputs and membrane potentials that determine whether the cell will subsequently fire an action potential.

In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.

dendrite
all or nothing law - states that it is either that neuron reacts or not at all but if it does react, it reacts with fullest strength law of dynamic polarity - states that nerve impulses travel only in one direction from neuron to neuron
Dendrites
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
The efferent neuron carries impulses towards the periphery.
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.
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
1. The receptor reacts to a stimulus. 2. The sensory neuron conducts the afferent impulses to the CNS. 3. The integration center consists of one or more synapses in the CNS. 4. The motor neuron conducts the efferent impulses from the integration center to an effector. 5. The effector, muscle fibers or glands, respond to the efferent impulses by contraction or secretion a product, respectively.
Fibres which carry impulses towards the cell body of a neuron are called dendrites. The axon is the fibre which carries impulses away from the cell body of a neuron.
