What are electrical junctions in the human body?
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".
Which of these junctions represents the connection between the tip of a neuron and a skeletal muscle cell from which Acetylcholine diffuses?
Neuromuscular
What is the relationship between a synapse and neurotransmitter?
Chemical synapses are specialized junctions through which neurons signal to each other and to non-neuronal cells such as those in muscles or glands. At a chemical synapse, one neuron releases a neurotransmitter into a small space (the synapse) that is adjacent to another neuron.
What are junctions?
Junctions on roads are intersections.
Which type of junctions prevent water leakage between cells?
Tight Junctions
How many junctions are there on the M25?
There are 31 Junctions on the M25
How are the plasmodesmata of plant cells and commicating junctions of animal cell similar in function?
Cell junctions in plants are called Plasmodesmata while communicating junctions in animal cells are gap junctions
What are the four types of cellular junctions?
plasmodesmata tight junctions desmosomes gap junctions the plasmodesmata is the only cell junction in the plant cells.. and the other three cell junctions are in the animal cells...
Plasmodesmata of plant cells are functionally equivalent to what of animal cells?
If the answer choices are a. Extracellular Martix b. Desmosomes c. Gap Junctions d. Tight Junctions e. Peroxisomes Then the answer is definitely C, Gap Junctions
It is essential for heart muscle cells to beat in a coordinated fashion The cell junctions that would best facilitate this are?
anchoring junctions, im pretty positive. if not its tight junctions. but yeah, pretty sure its anchoring junctions.
Part of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses?
Synapses. Net flow of charged ions ("impulses") in neuronal cells trigger additional ion flow (ionotropic signaling) or neurotransmitter release (metabotropic signaling) to both neuronal and non-neuronal cell types ("the body") at junctions called synapses.
Which junctions permit cytoplasmic interconnections between cells?
1. OCCLUDING JUNCTIONS: tight junctions (vertebrates only) septate junctions (invertebrates mainly) 2. Zonula occludens: Occluding junctions seal cells together in an epithelium in a way that prevents even small molecules from leaking from one side of the sheet to the other. I am not sure if that's what you are asking but this is all i know and i
