Electrical junctions in the human body are where the axons of nerves (singly called neurons) send a chemical to the dendrite(s) of nearby neuron(s), said chemical creating a weak electrical current in the next neuron.
These neuron to neuron junctions are called, "Synapses".

Is lipid a electrical insulator of human body?
yes
Intercellular junction which provides ionic and hence electrical continuity?
Gap Junctions
Does inside human body considered an electrical conductor?
The inside of our body is a conductor.
Does the human body use potassium?
Yes. The human body uses potassium to:Build proteinsBreak down and use carbohydratesBuild muscleMaintain normal body growthControl the electrical activity of the heartControl the acid-base balance
What structural component of cardiac muscle cell allows for electrical current to flow from cell to cell?
Gap junctions. Gap junctions are connecting channels made of proteins that permit the movement of ions or water between two adjacent cells. They are commonly found in cardiac and smooth muscle cells.Read more: what-are-gap-junctions

What form of energy does food provide the human body?
electrical
Why body is good conductor?
The human body is 61.8% water. Water conducts electrical conductor as a result. Mind you, the human body is capable of generating 11,000 watt hours of electrical energy in a typical lifetime. Not to mention that your eitire body runs on electrical signals to and from your brain. Gotta move that kidney data somehow.
Does the amount of electrolytes in your body increase or decrease the electrical current your body generates?
electrolytesn and human bady
What are electrolites good for?
Electrolytes are necessary for proper electrical processes in the human body.
What part of the human body has the highest resistance to electrical current?
The Skin
How does the body conduct an electrical current?
The human body is over 70 percent water. The electron transfer that is the fundamental part of an electrical current uses ions dissolved in solution to conduct the electrical current.
What is the difference between the human red blood cell and a typical human body cell?
The human red blood cell lacks a nucleus, and its shape is biconcave (to allow higher oxygen uptake and to flow through the vessels without hooking onto junctions)
