What is the path of an electrical impulse as it moves through a neuron?
The electrical impulse travels into the dendrites, the "input" of the neuron, and into the soma or "body" where the signal gets processed. From there, the processed signal travels down the axon or "output" and into the dendrites of another neuron.
What is the electrical message that travels along a neuron?
electrical signal
What Process describes how a signal travels from one end of a neuron to the other end?
membrane excitability is correct
Explain the communication process of neurons in the brain?
When transmitting a message, a signal travels through the neuron until the cell ends at the terminal. In order to propagate the signal to the next neuron chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) are released into the inter-neuronal space (synapse). This triggers signal initiation in the second neuron.
What process describes how a signal travels from one end of a neuron to the other a. hormonal requlation B. muscle coordination C. membrane excitability d. neurotransmitter release?
The process that describes how a signal travels from one end of a neuron to the other is called neurotransmitter release. Neurons are very important.
When a neuron is depolarized to threshold?
1. The neuron fires an action potential, sending the electrical signal down the axon.
What is impulse propagation?
It is the traveling of the electrical signal down the length of a neuron.
Is it true that motor neurons pass messages from neuron to neuron?
Yes, an electrical signal is passed from the dendrites of 1 motor neuron, through it's cell body, through it's axon (the long tail looking feature of the neuron). It then travels through branches of the axon and forms synapses with other motor neurons, this is how the electrical signal is passed.
What a neuron in your finger senses the temperature when you touch something hot?
The nerve cells that detect heat (located within your Dermis) activate when touching a hot surface. This nerve impulse then travels through your central nervous system to your brain when it is translated as "pain" or "damage" to the area. The signal travels back down the arm as a reaction to move the stimulous and causes you to move your hand.
What term is used to describe a neuron that is not transmitting a signal?
When a neuron is not transmitting a signal, it is at rest.
What term is used to describe a neuron that is not transmitting signal?
When a neuron is not transmitting a signal, it is at rest.
Where do motor neurons carry signals from?
The entire signal travels in the neuron by a graded potential which is created in the dendrites and the body (soma) of the neuron, then it reaches a spot of the neuron which is called the axon-hillock where the signal now for the first time has encountered "voltage-gated channels" and now can create an Action potential that can propagate through the terminus of the neuron which is the length of the axon.
