What else can I help you with?
The part of the neuron that facilitates synaptic transmission of a signal to another neuron is?
Soma
What part of the neuron that facilitates synaptic transmission of a signals is called?
the part that facilitates the the transmission of signals is collectively known as the axon but more peculiarly known as the nerve endings.
What is the basic unit of the nervous system that facilitates nerve impulses through the body?
Neuron
What is accomplished by synaptic transmission?
Synaptic transmission, also called neurotransmission, refers to the process wherein neurotransmitters are released by a neuron to activate the receptors of another neuron. Communication between two nerve cells is accomplished by synaptic transmission.
Does synaptic transmission involve electrical information to pass from terminal button to dendrites of another neuron?
No, synaptic transmission is chemical, not electrical.
What structure in the neuron accelerates the transmission of the action potential?
The structure in the neuron that accelerates the transmission of the action potential is called the myelin sheath.
When a neuron transfers an impulse to another neuron or to a muscle cell what is that location that receives the impulse called synapse dendrite receptor NextReset?
The location where a neuron transfers an impulse to another neuron or to a muscle cell is called a synapse. At the synapse, the presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters that bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron or muscle cell, facilitating the transmission of the signal. This process is crucial for communication within the nervous system and between nerves and muscles.
What is the transmission zone of a neuron?
I have never heard of the term 'transmission zone' (which may be someone's personal name for what I'm about to explain) but neurons send their chemical signals across what is known as a synapse, the region where the axon of one neuron meets up with another neuron (most often a dendrite). The space between these two neurons (the non-neuron space in the synapse) is called the synaptic cleft. Through this space, neurotransmitters pass through and act on the receiving neuron once they reach it.
What is Diffusion of transmitters across synaptic cleft?
Diffusion of transmitters across synaptic cleft is the process by which neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron into the synaptic cleft and then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron. This allows for the transmission of signals from one neuron to another in the nervous system.
What is another name for afferent neuron?
sensory neuron or receptor neuron.
What does communication in the nervous system depend on which are electrical impulses that travel from neuron to neuron?
Communication in the nervous system depends on the transmission of electrical impulses, known as action potentials, that travel along the length of neurons. These electrical signals allow for the rapid and precise transmission of information from one neuron to another, enabling various functions such as sensory perception, motor responses, and cognition.
How does communication in the nervous system facilitate the transmission of signals between neurons?
Communication in the nervous system is facilitated through the transmission of signals between neurons. This process involves the release of neurotransmitters from one neuron, which then bind to receptors on another neuron, allowing for the transmission of information. This communication allows for the coordination of various functions in the body and is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system.
