true
Impulse conduction refers to passage of impulse within the same cell. Where as transmission as the name implies, is concerned about passage of impulses either chemical or electrical from one cell to another.
Its main function is to propagate the action potential (the 'impulse') along the length of the axon.
functional connection between two neurons is the transmission of electrical signals from one neuron to another through a synapse. When an electrical impulse reaches the axon terminal of the pre-synaptic neuron, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the post-synaptic neuron, allowing the electrical signal to be transmitted and continue the communication between neurons.

SA node: P waveUnder normal conditions, electrical activity is spontaneously generated by the SA node, the physiological pacemaker. This electrical impulse is propagated throughout the right atrium, and throughBachmann's bundle to the left atrium, stimulating the myocardium of both atria to contract. The conduction of the electrical impulse throughout the left and right atria is seen on the ECG as the P wave. As the electrical activity is spreading throughout the atria, it travels via specialized pathways, known as internodal tracts, from the SA node to the AV node.
The electrical impulse reaches all the muscle tissue in the ventricles, and the ventricles contract. This electrical conduction pattern occurs approx. every 0.8 seconds.
With Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome, the heart has an extra nerve, or "accessory pathway" that electrically connects the _____ to the _____.
Its main function is to propagate the action potential (the 'impulse') along the length of the axon.
