Okay, information is received through the dendrites, and then moves on the the cell body. From there, the cell's axon passes the message on to other neurons or to muscles or glands.

What travels through the neuron?
An electrical impulse will travel through a neuron.
The message that travels through a neuron?
A neural impulse. Specifically, once it fires, an action potential.
List the cellular structures over which an impulse would pass?
In the body, an electrical impulse travels through the neurons, or nerve cells, to send signals to and from the brain. The Dendrites of the neuron accept the impulse, send it through the soma, down the axon, and to the axon terminal, where it'll be sent to the next neuron, almost instantly.
Through which part of the neuron does an impulse leave the cell?
Terminal end fibers
Where does an impulse move from on neuron to the other?
The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.
What travels through the neuron?
An electrical impulse will travel through a neuron.
What is a message that travels through the neuron?
An Impulse
What is the message that travels through the neuron?
An Impulse

What is the path of an electrical impulse as it moves through a neuron?
The electrical impulse travels into the dendrites, the "input" of the neuron, and into the soma or "body" where the signal gets processed. From there, the processed signal travels down the axon or "output" and into the dendrites of another neuron.
Describe the path a nerve impulse travels through?
When an impulse travels to the brain, it is first received by sensory receptors, then sent through the neurons by an electrical current. When the neuron receives the signal from a sensory receptor or from another neuron, the nucleus processes the impulse and then sends it down the axon. When a neuron is resting, the inside of the cell has a negative charge caused by active transport of NA and K molecules. This is called the resting potential. When the impulse hits the axon, the electricity causes NA pumps to open, allowing a flow of positively charged the molecule into the cell, causing the charges to switch. This is called the action potential. As the impulse passes, the K pumps open, restoring the original charge. When the impulse reached the end of the axon, neurotransmitters chemically pass the impulse to the next neuron. ;

What is the direction of impulse in a neuron?
A nerve impulse travels toward the actual nucleus itself to pass information.
What is a neuron impulse?
it is neuron impulse
In what order does an impulse travel through the structures of the neuron?
What_is_the_process_of_a_nervous_impulse_traveling_through_a_neuron
What is a small space across which an impulse travels to move from on neuron to another?
It's most likely called a synapse
What muscles are used when you do step ups?
Various muscles of lower limb and back and hip.Each nerve impulse begins in the dendrites of a neuron's. the impulse move rapidly toward the neuron's cell body and then down the axon until it reaches the axon tip. a nerve impulse travels along the neuron in the form of electrical and chemical signals.
