What else can I help you with?
What will conduct a nerve impulse faster thick or thin axon?
Thick axons conduct nerve impulses faster than thin axons because they have a lower resistance to the flow of electrical signals. This allows for quicker transmission of signals along the axon.
What are the differences between myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibers in terms of their conduction speed and efficiency?
Myelinated nerve fibers conduct electrical signals faster and more efficiently compared to unmyelinated nerve fibers. This is because the myelin sheath insulates and speeds up the transmission of signals along the nerve fibers.
What are tiny pulses of electricity that move along a nerve fiber?
Nerve signals Thats what my crossword was.
What sheath covers the axon to speed up nerve tranmissions?
Schwann cells are neuroglial cells that actually cover and insulate axons. They not only help to spend up nerve transmission, but they also feed the neuron.
What is the advantage of saltatory conduction in nerve impulses?
The advantage of saltatory conduction in nerve impulses is that it allows for faster transmission of signals along the nerve fibers. This is because the electrical impulses "jump" from one node of Ranvier to the next, rather than traveling continuously along the entire length of the nerve fiber. This speeds up the transmission of signals and conserves energy for the nerve cell.
Which nerve conveys parasympathetic signals to the heart?
The Vegal Nerve conveys parasympathetic signals to the heart
What are pacemaker cells in the human body?
They Are A Special Group Of Nerve Cells. Nerve Signals From The Brain Control The Pacemaker, Making It Go Faster Or Slower When Required. Specialist cells in the heart which have autorhythmicity.
Nerve cells send out signals?
Yes they do send out signals
What is an excitable nerve cell that sends electrical signals?
A neuron is an excitable nerve cell that sends electrical signals when stimulated
What is the nerve that sends signals from inner ear to the brain?
auditory nerve
What nerve is responsible for visual signals to the brain?
optic nerve
Are Nerve impulses electrical signaled?
Nerve impulses are electrical signals.
