Which type of nerve cell carries messages toward the brain?
sensory or afferent nerve cells carry messages to the brain
What is a tiny branching thread-like structure found in neurons?
There are two possible answers - axons or dendrites. Axons carry action potentials away from the neuron, while dendrites receive action potentials.
What forms a motor neuron?
motor neuron is actually a nerve cell made up of dendrites,axon,shwann cell,mylean sheath,central cell body,nodes of ranvier which carry messages from central nervous system to effectors.......
What part of the neuron would be responsible for notifing the brain that you hurt yourself?
Sensory nerve fibers carry message to brain. A part of neuron or or single neuron does not carry this message to the brain.
Which part of the neuron transmits information to other cells?
The end of one neuron, the presynaptic button, sends messages to other cells by releasing neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) into the synaptic cleft (a small space between two neurons). The other cell, whether it be a neuron, a muscle, a sweat gland, etc., will receive this message at the post synaptic membrane of its cell, and will respond accordingly.
What are the short strands branching out from a neuron that carry message to the cell body called?
dendrites
Which branching structures carry information toward the cell body of a neuron?
Dendrites
What carries messages from the cell body of a neuron?
Remember: Axons away, so dendrites carry messages from the cell, and axons carry them away.
What are the structures that carry messages toward a neuron's cell body?
nerve impulses
What part of the neuron carry the message from the brain to muscles of your hands and backbone?
Messages from the neuron always travel from the cell body down the axon.
What is the part of the neuron that carries messages?
Dendrites carry messages to a cell body of a neuron.
A single long strand coming out of a neuron that carry messages away from the cell body?
axon
Which type of nerve cell carries messages toward the brain?
sensory or afferent nerve cells carry messages to the brain
What cell carry messages to and from the different parts the body?
Neuron carries messages from different parts of the body.
What is a role of an axon?
the function of the neuron's axon is to carry messages to other cells
How fast are messages sent through the axons?
Depending on the type of neuron, it can take anywhere from 1 to 200 miles per hour to carry a message.
What is a tiny branching thread-like structure found in neurons?
There are two possible answers - axons or dendrites. Axons carry action potentials away from the neuron, while dendrites receive action potentials.
