The atrioventricular (AV) node sends the signal to the AV bundle, where the wave of contraction travels from the atria to the ventricles.

What is the name of the short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response?
The short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response is called a reflex arc.
A neuron transmits a nerve impulse as a wave of?
electrical
What carries impulses from the skin to the central nervous system?
A pseudo-unipolar neuron referred to as an afferent neuron carries a sensory impulse to the spinal cord, which is part of the central nervous system.A pseudo-unipolar neuron has one axon which comes from the cell body (soma) and then splits into two branches, the peripheral axonal branch which carries the impulse from the skin, and the central axonal branch which carries the impulse to the spinal cord; it has no dendrites, which distinguishes it from a bipolar neuron.The impulse moves along the peripheral branch and then to the central branch, skipping the soma.
Do neuron transfer information in the form of an electrical impulse?
yes they do
What happens to a muscle when an electrical impulse from a nerve stops?
yes
What structure of a neuron is capable of propagating an electrical impulse?
the dendrites are
How does movement of electrical impulse relate to the contraction of the chambers of the heart?
The impulse shocks the left and right atria of the heart. This pumps blood into the left and right ventricle. The ventricles then receive the impulse and pump the blood. The movement of the electrical impulse allows the blood to move through multiple areas of the heart with only one impulse.
What is neural impulse?
A neural Impulse is a spike of electrical activity.
What is the name of the short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response?
The short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response is called a reflex arc.
What carries impulses away from neuron cell bodies?
The axon of the neurone carries the impulse away from the cell body. The axon of the neurone carries the impulse away from the cell body.
What carries an impulse away from neuron?
The axon.
What kind of impulse tells the heart to pump blood?
an electrical impulse
What carries impulse toward a nerve cell?
blood
What carries an impulse across a synapse to a muscle?
neurons?
How do you convert electrical impulse in to electrical energy?
if it acts on a charged particle
What carries impulse toward the cell body of a neuron?
Dendrites.
What carries a nerve impulse from one neuron to annother?
Neurotransmitter.
