How an impulse can continue to travel along a nerve pathway when there's a gap between two neurons?
Nerve pathways are slim, however neurones are small in size therefore the total amount of atoms in the impulse is enough to fit through a gap in the pathway of neurons
What affects nerve impulse speed?
Action potential
The message that travels through a neuron?
A neural impulse. Specifically, once it fires, an action potential.
If you accidentally step on a tack with your bare foot the pathway that the nerve impulse takes from your foot to your leg is called?
reflex arc.
When the what reaches the end of the axon the neurotransmitter is released?
When the _____________reaches the ends of the axon the neurotransmitter is released and it diffuses to the muscle cell membrane to combine with receptors there?Sarcolemma
What pathway does a nerve impulse follow after initiated into a receptor?
nerve my a$$ nerve
What is a similarity between a reflex action and a voluntary action?
Both require motor neurones to carry the nerve impulse to the effector in order for the muscle to contract carry out an action.
Is an action potential necessary for a nerve impulse to occur?
Yes, an action potential is needed for a nerve impulse to occur.
Is a action potential necessary for a nerve impulse to occur?
Yes, an action potential is needed for a nerve impulse to occur.
What is nerve impulse transmission?
An action potention.

Nerve pathways are slim, however neurones are small in size therefore the total amount of atoms in the impulse is enough to fit through a gap in the pathway of neurons
A nerve impulse consists of a wave of?
Action Potentials

Also called a nerve impulse transmitted by axons?
action potential
