What kinds of compounds in the body transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells?
a Neurotransmitter
What is the function of End Plates?
A motor endplate is a large special synaptic contact between motor axons and each skeletal muscle fiber. Each muscle fiber forms one endplate. Its function is to transmit impulses from nerves to muscles.

Is it true that motor neurons receive nerve impulses from the central nervous system causing muscle fibers to contract?
It would be more accurate to say that the neurons transmit the impulses, rather than that they receive them.
What is the role of the tubules?
What is the function of the transverse tubules, is it the place where actin and myosin interact or the storage of calcium ions, or to transmit muscle impulses into the cell interior?
What cells transmit and receive impulses?
nervous tissue.
Does muscle tissue conduct nerve impulses from one neuron to another and coordinates body activity?
Muscle tissue cannot conduct nerve impulses from one neuron to the other. Moreover, skeletal muscle tissue cannot even pass impulses between themselves and they should be stimulated by single branches of neurons. However, cardiac muscle cells has the unique ability to conduct impulses between themselves through gap junctions.
What happens if one of your leg motor neuron stop functioning?
The leg wouldn't be able to receive or transmit impulses and information from the central nerves system CNS to the muscle and glands
What is acetylecholine?
Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that helps transmit electrical nervous impulses from one nerve to another. Commonly found when a nerve terminates in a muscle (the neuromuscular junction) to cause contraction.
What is the function of the transverse tubules in muscle activation?
What is the function of the transverse tubules, is it the place where actin and myosin interact or the storage of calcium ions, or to transmit muscle impulses into the cell interior?
What is a chronic autoimmune disorder in which the motor neurons fail to transmit impulses to the muscles to cause muscle contractions?
A chronic autoimmune disease that affects the neuromuscular junction is myasthenia gravis. It leads to fluctuating muscle weakness and fatigue.
Which type of muscle is controlled at will by impulses from the brain?
All muscles are controlled by impulses from the brain. Skeletal muscle is, with few exceptions, the only type of muscle that can be controlled at will.
