the neuron consist of the million short dendrites that receive electric impulse to the body cell, also the long axon that takes away the electric impulse away from the cell body and also it contain the myelin sheath that helps in contraction on axon to facilitate the quick transmission of the nerve impulse
What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the nerve cell between the receptor cell and the central nervous system?
SENSORY NEURONE
What is the name of the neurone that carries impulses to the central nervous system?
The neuron that carries impulses to the central nervous system is called a sensory neuron. Sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors to the brain and spinal cord, allowing the central nervous system to process and respond to sensory information.
What is acetylcholen?
Acetylcholine (ACh) is an exitatory neurotransmitter. This means it is released from the synapse of the neurone and promotes the continuation of the AP in the next neurone instead of inhibiting it. ACh is part of the peripheral nervous system and is not very prominent in the central nervous system.
Which type of neurone transmits the impulse from a motor to a sensory neurone?
There is no specific type of neuron that transmits impulses directly from a motor neuron to a sensory neuron. Motor neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles or glands, while sensory neurons transmit signals from sensory receptors to the central nervous system for processing. Communication between motor and sensory pathways typically involves interneurons within the central nervous system.
How does information travel along the axon of a sensory neurone?
the receptor detects the stimulus and the sensor neurone sends it to the CNS (central nervous system
What do you call the neurone that connects the sensory and motor neurone together?
The neuron that connects the sensory and motor neurons together is called an interneuron. Interneurons facilitate communication between sensory and motor neurons within the central nervous system.
How does the passage of a touch signal pass from skin to the cerebral cortex?
Pressure receptors in the skin pick up the stimulus. It passes along a sensory neurone to the central nervous system. Within the CNS it is transferred to the cerebral contex via an association neurone, relay neurone.
What is a motor neuron?
motor neuron is a type of neuron that found at the muscles, tissues, and organs.
What is the basic cell of the nervous system?
Neurone or nerve cell
Three differences between sensory neurone and motor neurone?
# Motor neurones have cell bodies inside the Central Nervous System (CNS) whilst in sensory neurones the cell body is located outside of the CNS # Motor neurones transmit impulses from the CNS to the effector which brings about a response to the situation, sensory neurones transmit impulses from to the CNS from the receptor. # Sensory neurones transmit impulses as a result of external stimuli such as pressure, light, temperature etc. Motor neurone transmit impulses passed along the CNS to the effector.
What is the main function if the nerve cells?
A neurone is a collection of specialized cells, along with supporting cells (oligodendrocytes), that convey or carry an electrical impulse to or away from the central nervous system.
Where do you find a connector neurone?
Connector neurons are found in the central nervous system, where they connect sensory neurons to motor neurons or other connector neurons. These neurons play a crucial role in transmitting and integrating information within the nervous system.
