What does the tissues responsible for sensing stimuli?
The body tissue that has fibers that react to stimuli is called the "nervous tissue". The nervous tissue is composed of neurons or nerve cells that receive and transmit impulses and the "neuroglia" that help to transmit nerve impulses and also provide nutrition for the nerve cells.
Do axons receive impulses toward the body cells?
No, axons transmit impulses away from the body cells. Dendrites receive impulses from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body, and then the axon carries the impulse away from the cell body to other neurons or to muscles or glands.
Which neuron delivers sensations to the cns?
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
What is a specialization of a nerve cell?
Nerve cells have dendrites at the end. They have a long Cytoplasm to transmit nerve impulses for long distances.
Does Neuroglia transmit nerve impulses?
No
What are nerve cells specialized to receive and conduct electrical impulses?
Neurons transmit nerve impulses/ electric impulses throughout the body.
Which cells differentiate to transmit nerve impulses?
Brain Cells
What nervous system cells do not transmit impulses?
Glial cells as they are responsible for providing support to the neuron, nourishing, and making sure homeostasis is maintained, thus they do not transmit impulses.

The body tissue that has fibers that react to stimuli is called the "nervous tissue". The nervous tissue is composed of neurons or nerve cells that receive and transmit impulses and the "neuroglia" that help to transmit nerve impulses and also provide nutrition for the nerve cells.
What happens when schwann cells are killed in the humman body?
the human body does not have the ability to receive or transmit neuron impulses any more. Hope this helps
Do axons receive impulses toward the body cells?
No, axons transmit impulses away from the body cells. Dendrites receive impulses from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body, and then the axon carries the impulse away from the cell body to other neurons or to muscles or glands.
Contains sensitive cells that transmit light energy to nervous impulses?
retina
How is the shape of the cells suited to the function?
A nerve cells long extensions reach out in various directions to enable them to receive and transmit impulses. And dead Skin Cells flat shape enables them to cover the surface of the body well.
Nerve cells that transmit nerve impulses in the form of electrochemical changes are known as?
Neurons
What are the cells that transmit nerve impulses between parts of the nervous system?
yes
What kinds of compounds in the body transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells?
a Neurotransmitter
Is it true that Dendrites are branching cytoplasmic projections of neurons that receive impulses and transmit them to the cell body?
true
