Yes, the axon conducts the action potential from the cell body to the effector organ.
Axon/Axon terminals
Those neurons with mylenated fibers on the axon have the fastest response.
Impulses are conducted along a neuron in one direction, from the dendrites to the cell body, then through the axon and to the axon terminals. This pathway ensures that signals are transmitted efficiently and effectively from one neuron to another or to an effector cell.
Calcium ions are responsible for triggering the fusion of neurotransmitter vesicles with the axon's membrane during the conduction of a nerve impulse. The influx of calcium ions into the neuron's terminal triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft.
Axon
dendrites -Apex
There is one way conduction of impulse into the neuron, from dendrites to nerve body to axon.
The tip of a neuron's axon culminates in several endings call terminal buttons. When an action potential is conducted down the axon, this is where it goes.
axons of neurons in the peripheral nervous system. The myelin sheath helps to insulate the axon and improve the speed of electrical signal conduction along the neuron. Schwann cells are also involved in nerve regeneration and support neuron function within the peripheral nervous system.
Yes.
An axon terminal is the structure of a neuron (a single cell of the central or peripheral nervous system) at the end of it's axon that forms a synapse with another neuron. Generally, the axon terminal is the point at which a neuron passes information to the neurons with which it is connected.
