What kind of nerve cell that receives info?
Dendrites of Neurons receive information.
What part of a neuron transmits information to other neurons?
Dendrites receive information from other neurons. A dendrite is a short branched extension of a nerve cell where impulses received from other cells at synapses are transmitted to the cell body.
Which part of the neuron acts as a receiver for nerve impulses?
potassuimaxon terminals transmit info from their neuron to another, while dendrites receive info from other neurons.
Which 3 parts of a human neuron are common in all animal neurons?
soma (cell body), axon, and axon terminals. I left out dendrites, because there are some kinds of neurons (sensory neurons) which don't have dendrites, but rather have axons which come from a sense receptor cell, come to but do not enter the soma, where the impulse continues onalong a second branch of the axon stub which comes out from the soma. In other words, a single axon (or perhaps a fused axon and dendrite?) comes out from the soma, where it branches into two, one of which goes to the receptor cell to receive an impulse (and is myelinated and conducts an action potential), and the other goes to the spinal cord or brain.
What are extensions of a neuron that receive signals?
These are called 'dendrites'
What do dendrites do for the neuron?
Dendrites receive inputs from other neurons, via synapses.
Short branched extensions through which neurons receive signals?
dendrites
What kind of nerve cell that receives info?
Dendrites of Neurons receive information.
The part of the neuron that is responsible for receiving information signals from other neurons is called?
Dendrites are the part of a neuron which receives chemical messages (neurotransmitters) through synapses.Mostly the dendrites receive messages from other neurons, but the cell bodies of neurons also receive direct synaptic inputs from other cells.
Dendrites are branching extensions of?
neurons that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body. They are covered in dendritic spines, where synapses with other neurons are formed.
What conducts local currents towards the soma?
Dendrites receive stimuli from other neurons. Charge is carried by ions. The direction of the charge flows in is determined by the electrochemical potential difference across the membrane and the properties of membrane ion channels.
Axons and Dendrites are part of what kind of cell?
Neurons, of the nervous system. The dendrites receive impulses, and the axons send them to another neuron or an effector cell.
What neurons receive information from sensory organs?
Dendrites are the part of the neuron specialized to receive information from other neurons and the axon transmits signals to other neurons or to muscles or glands.
Is it true that Dendrites are branching cytoplasmic projections of neurons that receive impulses and transmit them to the cell body?
true
What part of a neuron transmits information to other neurons?
Dendrites receive information from other neurons. A dendrite is a short branched extension of a nerve cell where impulses received from other cells at synapses are transmitted to the cell body.
Which part of the neuron acts as a receiver for nerve impulses?
potassuimaxon terminals transmit info from their neuron to another, while dendrites receive info from other neurons.
What is the function of the dendrites in the neurons?
The dendrites receive the data or signal from another neuron for the soma.
