What is the job of the dendrite?

Dendrites connect to other receptive cell (ie. Receptors)


Which of the following are the main receptive or input regions found in neurons?

neurofibrils neurofibrils Both are Wrong, but I do not the correct answer. I think it's NISSL CELL The Dendrites provide the receptive surface for communications. (In some types of neurons the cell body provides such surface) Neither neurofibrils or Nissl cell is wrong. The correct answer is the dendrites. Dendrites are the structures on the neruons that are the main receptive surfaces for nerve impulses.


What is a function of dendrites?

They are the main receptive of input regions. They provide an enormous surface area for receiving signals from other neurons. in the brain it collects information. Dendrites give stability to microstructures.


What are the differences between smooth and striated muscle?

Here we are talking about the surface of the muscles..... Smooth muscles have smooth surface while striated muscles have rough surface.....


Which of the muscles on the dorsal surface are shaped like a trapezoid?

The trapezius muscles are the muscles on the dorsal surface that are shaped like a trapezpoid.


When a nerve impulse reaches the end of the axon the tiny sacs that store the neurotransmitters move to the surface and release the neurotranmistters These tiny sacs that store the neurotransmitters?

sacs are Synaptic vesicle.


What is the function of the dendrites in the neurons?

The dendrites receive the data or signal from another neuron for the soma.


What acts like antennas receiving messages from as many as 10000 other cells and transmitting these messages toward the cell body?

Receptors on cell surface. Dendrites


When you sit on a hard surface your muscles harden?

No. Only if you get sat upon.


Muscles visible at the body surface are often called?

What type of excitatory neurotransmitter is secreted by motor neurons innervating skeletal muscle?

Acetylcholine is the excitatory neurotransmitter released by neurons innervating skeletal muscles. Acetylcholine release stimulates muscle contraction by acting at the nicotinic-acetylcholine receptor on the surface of the muscle cell.
