What else can I help you with?
What are the main ways in which cells are able to communicate with each other?
through nerve impulses and hormones
What are the main ways in which animal cells are able to communicate with each other?
through nerve impulses and hormones
What is dendrite?
Dendrites are short extensions branching off of a neuron, along which impulses from other nerve cells are transmitted to the cell body.()() .
What is the message a neuron carries?
nerve impulses
Do nerve impulses begin in the axon of a neuron?
No, nerve impulses do not begin in the axon of a neuron; they typically begin in the dendrites or the cell body. When a neuron receives sufficient stimulation, it generates an action potential that travels down the axon. The axon then conducts this impulse away from the cell body towards other neurons or target tissues.
What cells transmit and receive impulses?
nervous tissue.
How do eye cells communicate with muscle cells?
The eye cells transmit nerve impulses to the brain, which translates the signal and transmits nerve impulses to the muscles. Information from sensory organs, including the eyes, ears, tongue, and skin, are transmitted by nerve impulses directly to the brain. The brain acting as the control center of the body interprets the nerve impulses. It then sends out different nerve impulses to other cells of the body if a response to the sensory signals is needed.
Cytoplasmic extensions of neurons that act as an antennae for the reception of nerve impulses from other nerve cells?
dendrites
A synapse is the space between what?
Usually from the axon of one nerve to the dendrite of another. The axon sends impulses away from the nerve body, and the dendrite receives impulses from other nerves.
Cytoplasmic extensions of neurons that act as an antennae for the reception of nerve impulses from what other nerve cells?
Cytoplasmic extensions of neurons that act as an antennae for the reception of nerve impulses from other nerve cells are called dendrites. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit these signals to the cell body of the neuron.
What is the process of a nerve response?
cells in nervous tissue communicate with each other by way of electrical nerve impulses
How is a reflex nerve impulse different than other nerve impulses?
Skeletal muscles interact with the spinal cord
