What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates with a receiving neuron?
Synapse
What is the space between the sending and the receiving neuron called?
synaptic cleft
The part of the neuron that carries impulses to the neuron cell body is the?
dendrite
What anatomical characteristic determines wether a particular neuron is classified as unipolar bipolar or multipolar?
The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
What part is a neuron receives signals?
dendrite
Which part of a neuron is usually involved in receiving information from other neurons?
"dendrite"
Why is the synapse not a structural feature of a neuron?
Because it is a small gap between the axon of one neuron and the receiving dendrite of another neuron.
What bridge the gap between a neuron sending a message and the neuron receiving it?
neurotransmitters
What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates with a receiving neuron?
Synapse
If a signal from a sending neuron makes the receiving neuron more negative inside?
The receiving neuron is less likely to generate action potential.
What is the longest dendrite of a neuron?
the longest dendrite is I don't know this /;[
What is the space between the sending and the receiving neuron called?
synaptic cleft
How does a message travel through a single neuron?
When a message gets sent to a neuron from the dendrite it goes through the cell body to the tip of the dendrite where it leaps to the next dendrite.
What determine whether a neuron is unipolar bipolar multipolar?
The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
The part of the neuron that carries impulses to the neuron cell body is the?
dendrite
What neuron is before a synapse?
The synapse consists of the two neurons, one of which is sending information to the other. The sending neuron is known as the pre-synaptic neuron (i.e. before the synapse) while the receiving neuron is known as the post-synaptic neuron (i.e. after the synapse).
What are the branches of artificial neuron network?
a dendrite
