It depends on what the next structure is.
If it is another neurone, then it is a synapse.
If it is skeletal muscle, then the it is a neuromuscular junction.
If it is any other type of muscle, then it is a myoneural junction.
The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.
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.
When one neuron communicates with another, the nerve impulse travels down the axon of the presynaptic neuron, reaches the axon terminal, triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron's dendrites, initiating a new nerve impulse in the postsynaptic neuron.
Impulse conduction refers to passage of impulse within the same cell. Where as transmission as the name implies, is concerned about passage of impulses either chemical or electrical from one cell to another.
Yes, neurons transfer information in the form of electrical impulses called action potentials. These impulses travel along the neuron's axon to transmit information between neurons.
synapse
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.
The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.
The place were neurons transfer an impulse to another structure is called a synapses. This is actually a gap between these 2 structures and the impulse has to cover that.
A nerve impulse
it is neuron impulse
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.
one second
The electrical impulse travels into the dendrites, the "input" of the neuron, and into the soma or "body" where the signal gets processed. From there, the processed signal travels down the axon or "output" and into the dendrites of another neuron.
When one neuron communicates with another, the nerve impulse travels down the axon of the presynaptic neuron, reaches the axon terminal, triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron's dendrites, initiating a new nerve impulse in the postsynaptic neuron.
Impulse conduction refers to passage of impulse within the same cell. Where as transmission as the name implies, is concerned about passage of impulses either chemical or electrical from one cell to another.
If a neuron is not sending out an impulse or signal, this means the neuron is at rest. Neurons send signals electrochemically.
