What else can I help you with?
What caries messages from brain to the body?
nuerons otherwise known as nerves
What are Three types of structures found in a true nervous system?
nuerons(NOO-rahn), Brain
The basic units of the brain spinal cord and nerves that process store and transmit information are the?
nuerons
What conducts impulses from the brain to glands?
Nerves transmit impulses from the brain to glands. This communication pathway enables the brain to control the release of hormones that regulate various bodily functions.
What type of venom affects the nuerons?
Neurotoxins
What is the gap between nuerons called?
A Synapse
What type of nuerons conduct nerve impulses along an efferent pathway?
Motor neurons
What is the ratio of neuroglial to nuerons?
The ratio of neuroglial cells (glia) to neurons in the human brain is estimated to be about 1:1 to 10:1, depending on the specific region of the brain and the methods used for measurement. While neurons are responsible for transmitting signals, glial cells support, protect, and enhance neuronal function. This substantial presence of glial cells highlights their critical role in maintaining overall brain health and function.
Describe what happens in your nervous system when you touch a hot stove Use the words reflex nerve impulse and nuerons?
when you touch a hot stove you feel pain in your hand. Your hand feels the pain and sends a message of pain to the brain. The brain sends a message to stop before any more damage is done
Which technique of studying the brain actually damages nuerons?
The technique known as "lesioning" involves deliberately damaging specific areas of the brain to study their functions. This can be done through various methods, such as surgical removal, chemical injections, or the use of electrical currents. While lesioning provides valuable insights into brain function and behavior, it inevitably results in the destruction of neurons within the targeted area. As a result, this method raises ethical concerns regarding the harm inflicted on the brain tissues being studied.
What is the name for all the nuerons in the central nervous system?
Interneurons
How many brain calls are there in the brain?
There are around 200,000,000 brain cells in the brain.
