Neuroglia that control the chemical environment around the neurons by buffering potassium and recapturing neurotransmitters are called what?
Astrocytes
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
What are neurons detecting stimuli in the skin and eyes called?
sensory neurons
Neuron that brings information from senses to brain?
There are 2 different kinds of neurons within the body. The neurons that carry messages from senses to the brain are called Sensory Neurons while the neurons that cause the brain to make the body react are called Motor, or efferent, neurons.
Does an adaptation have to fit the environment?
if not it is not called adaptation ! adaptation is something that gives species an advantage in survival and reproducing ability which is completely depending on environment
Cells called what detect changes in the environment known as stimuli?
they are called receptors.
Animal's ability to blend with environment is called protective?
An animal's ability to blend with its environment is called protective camouflage. However, if you are not looking for camouflage as an answer, this ability is also called crypsis.
What is the ability of the body to protect itself from its environment?
The ability of the body to protects itself from its environment is called homeostasis.
What neurons that carry impulse to the brain and spinal cord called?
These are called efferent neurons. The one that carry impulses away are afferent. Afferent (A) are away (A).
Neuroglia that control the chemical environment around the neurons by buffering potassium and recapturing neurotransmitters are called what?
Astrocytes
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
An animal's ability to adujust to changing condition in environment is called?
Adaptation.
What are neurons called that detect stimuli in the skin and eye?
sensory neurons
Do hamsters have a special ability to survive in their environment?
No, they do no, but, HELLLO!!!! It's called adaptations!
What regulates the body through impulses that come from the environment?
Sensory neurons provide information from the environment to the body. For example, when you touch a hot surface, a sensory neuron informs your body that the temperature near your skin is rising. Motor neurons are the neurons the body uses to react to the environment. For example, if you touch a hot surface, then your body will make your hand move away from that surface by a motor neuron. The action is the result of the motor neurons not the fact you realize it is hot, Motor neurons also send impulses to your muscles. These neurons are called somatic neurons. Another motor neuron is the autonomic neuron. This neuron control your organs and heart. Usually the Vegas nerve controls and divides this power in two ways: sympathetic and parasympathetic
Neurons that function within the brain and spinal cord are called?
interneurons also called central or association neurons
What did Darwin call the ability to survive and reproduce?
Darwin called the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment fitness.
