Nerve cells and muscle cells are excitable. Their cell membrane can produce electrochemical impulses and conduct them along the membrane. In muscle cells, this electric phenomenon is also associated with the contraction of the cell.

What kind of bond is used to transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells?

The type of bond used to transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells is a chemical bond called a neurotransmitter. Neurotransmitters are released from the nerve cells and bind to receptors on the muscle cells, triggering a response that leads to muscle contraction.


What kinds of compounds in the body transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells?

Neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells. These chemical messengers are released at the synapse where nerve and muscle cells meet, allowing for the transmission of signals that trigger muscle contraction.
