When is a neurolemma more permeable to potassium than sodium?

during depolarization


Are neurons made up of neurolemma?

No. Neurons have a cover on a part called the axon. This is called a neurolemma. Not all axons have this covering. This cover acts like the cover on an electrical cord. It prevents it from short circuiting and increases the speed which the impulse travels.


What happens in the neurolemma as the result of an action potential?

It provides insulation to the axons and dendrites during depolarization or action potential.


Which nervous system division are neurolemmocytes located?

Shwann Cells-PNS Oligodendrocytes-CNS Both form the neurolemma


What is a nerve membrane at rest called?

When the neural membrane (neurolemma) is at rest it is said to have resting potential, polarized, and has a negative charge inside.


The neurolemma and the myelin of the myelinated axons are interrupted at regular intervals along the axon by?

The gap between each myelinated section of an axon is known the node of ranvier.


What a cell membran?

It is the outer layer of protection of the Cell. It controls what goes in and out of the Cell. It contains lipids, proteins, and phospholipids. It is very important because it protects the Cell from the environment.It is called a neurolemma if it is around a nerve cell, and a sarcolemma if it is around a muscle cell.cell mem·branenounthe semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell.hope this helps!

The part of peripheral nerve tissue that helps promote regeneration of neurons is the?

The part of the peripheral nerve tissue that helps promote regeneration of neurons is the neurolemma. It refers to the thin sheath around a neural axon.


Function of neurilemma in nerve cell regeneration?

Neurolemma is just an outer shell of the myelin sheath, it's function is to protect a myelinated cell from injury and aid in its healing from injury by allowing information to travel faster to the brain that an unmyelinated cell.


What are medullated and non- medullated nerve fibres?

Depending on the number of sheaths ,nerve fibres are of two types :-Myelinated (Medullated) Nerve Fibre.Nonmyelinated (NonMedullated) Nerve Fibre.Myelinated (Medullated) Nerve Fibre.:-are those nerve fibres which are covered by two sheaths ,myelin & neurolemma.Nonmyelinated (NonMedullated) Nerve Fibre.:-these nerve fibres are devoid of myelin sheath .However,neurolemma is present.
