What neuron moves the impulses to the brain?
The brain is the control, and the whole reaction of a reflex arc starts with a stimulus, ie, touching a hot flame, the detector of this stimulus being the receptor. The electrical impulses travel through the sensory neuron to which it is then carried to the synapse (impulses reach the brain) the energy is then transferred across the synapse, to the relay neuron and then to the motor neuron, finally reaching the effector, (mainly muscle or gland) to move away the body part.
How impulses are transmitted and generated?
the brain sends electrical shocks through our nervous system that tells our body how to move, and when to do it.
What makes skeletal muscles move?
The nervous system produces electrical impulses which make muscles move through a sliding filament mechanism.
How do impulses move in response to a stimulus?
to the brain, then to the effector through the motor neuron
What is the location where chemicals pass signals from one neuron to the next?
Synapse: neurotransmitters from the pre-synaptic membrane spill into the synaptic cleft (synaptic gap), where the electrical impulse is transferred to the dendrites of the post-synaptic membrane.
What is a voice coil?
a voice coil is the electromagnet that causes a speaker horn to move in response to the electrical impulses received from the amplifier.
A small space across which an impulse travels to move from one neuron to another?
It is most definitely a synapse.
What is Nerve conduction testing?
Procedure that measures the speed at which impulses move through the nerves.
What neurons carry impulses away from the spinal cord and the brain?
the sensory neurons
What is the function of the intercalated disc?
Basically, the cardiac action potential travel across them, making it easier for the electrical impulses to move quickely.
In a neuron impulses move?
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
What tells the muscle when to move?
Your brain tells the muscle to move by sending electric impulses through your nerves to your muscles.
