The neurotransmitters of a neutron enable a nerve impulse to do what?

Neurotransmitters in a neuron allow a nerve impulse to be transmitted from one neuron to another by crossing the synapse and binding to receptors on the receiving neuron. This triggers an electrical or chemical signal to continue the nerve impulse along the neural pathway.


Which structure is coated with myelin to increase speed of nerve impulse transmission?

The structure coated with myelin to increase the speed of nerve impulse transmission is the axon. Myelin is a fatty substance that forms a protective sheath around the axon, facilitating faster electrical signal conduction through a process called saltatory conduction. This allows the nerve impulses to jump between the gaps in the myelin sheath, known as nodes of Ranvier, significantly enhancing transmission speed.
