Heat information is conducted through neurones. Higher frequency action potentials are perceived in the brain as a hotter stimulus. So the heated rod would have sent higher-frequency action potentials than the cool rod would have.
When a stimulus stimulates a neuron above the threshold, the action potential is generated.
axon hillock
voltage gated ion channel
Every time neurotransmitter is released from the presynaptic neuron it generates an excitatory post synaptic potential(EPSP) in the postsynaptic neuron. When the EPSP is greater than the threshold for excitation an action potential is generated.
may be there are specific arrangement of sodium and potassium ion channels in neurons which is not found in any other cell andthis arrangement is necessary for action potential generation but i am ot sure what kind of arrangement is needed for action potential generation and what kind is presentr in neurons and other cells .

Potassium.
it contracts
Myocardial contraction
Action potentials are generated on a part of the neuron called the 'axon hillock' - the proximal most portion of the axon.
voltage gated ion channel
Gap Junctions in the cell spread the action potential to nearby cells.
Every time neurotransmitter is released from the presynaptic neuron it generates an excitatory post synaptic potential(EPSP) in the postsynaptic neuron. When the EPSP is greater than the threshold for excitation an action potential is generated.
Each heartbeat begins with an action potential generated at the sinoatrial node or simple call the SAnode.

An action potential is propagated in a neuron through the activation of various voltage-gated and ligand-gated ion channels. Examples include sodium and calcium channels and nicotinic-acetylcholine receptors.
