each nerve impulse begins in the dendrites of a neuron's. the impulse move rapidly toward the neuron's cell body and then down the axon until it reaches the axon tip.a nerve impulse travels along the neuron in the form of electrical and chemical signals.
Brain send the message via nerve impulses involving neurons which use the neuro-transmitter Acetylcholine
Acetylcholine- a neurotransmitter released at the neuromuscular junction triggers a muscle action potential, which leads to muscle contraction.
What else can I help you with?
How many number of synapses that must be crossed before an afferent nerve impulse becomes a perception?
three
What is the correct order that information passes through in a neuron?
The flow of information across nerve cells is called a nerve impulse in which the axons of the cell must depolarize, repolarize and go through a refractory period before reaching the resting potential. At this point, another impulse can occur.
Does a nerve impulse travel faster with myelin or without it?
A nerve impulse travels faster with myelin than without it. Myelin is a fatty substance that insulates nerve fibers and allows electrical signals to jump between gaps in the myelin sheath, known as nodes of Ranvier. This process, called saltatory conduction, significantly increases the speed of impulse transmission compared to unmyelinated fibers, where the signal must travel continuously along the entire length of the axon.
Describe the pathway an impulse travels macroscopically through the nervous system from the brain to the muscle?
The NeuronThe cells that carry information through your nervous system are called neurons, or nerve cells. The message that a neuron carries is called a nerve impulse. The Structure of a Neuron:The structure of the neuron enables it to carry nerve impulses. A neuron has a large cell body that contains the nucleus, threadlike extensions called dendrites, and an axon. The dendrites carry impulses toward the neuron's cell body. The axon carries impulses away from the cell body. Nerve impulses begin in a dendrite, move toward the cell body, and then move down the axon. A neuron can have many dendrites, but it has only one axon. An axon, however, can have more than one tip, so the impulse can go to more than one other cell. Axons and dendrites are sometimes called nerve fibers. Nerve fibers are often arranged in parallel bundles covered with a connective tissue, something like a package of uncooked spaghetti wrapped in cellophane. A bundle of nerve fibers is called a nerve.Kinds of Neurons:Three kinds of neurons are found in the body-- sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons.A sensory neuron picks up stimuli from the internal or external environment and converts each stimulus into a nerve impulse. The impulse travels along the sensory neuron until it reaches the interneuron, usually in the brain or spinal cord. An interneuron is a neuron that carries nerve impulses from one neuron to another. Some interneurons pass impulses from sensory neurons to motor neurons. A motor neuron sends an impulse to a muscle or gland, and the muscle or gland reacts in response.How a Nerve Impulse TravelsThe Synapse:What happens when a nerve impulse reaches the axon tip at the end of a neuron? At that point, the impulse can pass to the next structure. Sometimes the structure is a dendrite of another neuron. Other times, the structure is a muscle or a cell in another organ, such as a sweat gland. The junction where one neuron can transfer an impulse to another structure is called a synapse. (SIN aps). How an Impulse is Transferred:For a nerve impulse to be carried along at a synapse, it must cross the gap between the axon and the next structure. The axon tips release chemicals that carry the impulse across the gap.You can think of the gap at a synapse as a river, and an axon as a road that leads up to the riverbank. The nerve impulse is like a car traveling on the road. To get to the other side, the car has to cross the river. The car gets on a ferry boat, which carries it across the river. The chemicals that the axon tips release are like the ferry, carrying the nerve impulse across the gap.
What molecule must first be present to begin photosynthesis?
I assume you are asking about carbon dioxide.
Where does a receptor send nerve impulse to?
To mordor via the shire and imagination land. Before reaching the brain they must first collect magical pixie dust from the moon, in order to make pancakes.
What things must happen in order that a substance can be smelled?
For a human to smell a substance, The substance must be volatile, and molecules of it must be airborne and drift near the nose. The substance must come in contact with an olfactory nerve-ending in the nose. The olfactory nerve must react, by excitation, to the molecule, sending an electrical impulse to the brain. The brain must receive and process olfactory (smell) nerve signals.
How does the all or none principle relate to the transmission of a nerve impulse?
The nerve impulse (action potential) either occurs, or it doesn't, depending on whether or not a sufficient summation of inputs from dendrites at the axon hillock (the trigger point) has occurred, either temporally or spatially.That is, if a large enough number of dendrites have received inputs from other neurons such that their total contribution of electrotonic impulses to the axon hillock results in enough Na ions there to trigger the action potential, or, if one or more dendrites is/are stimulated so often or quickly that, again, there are enough Na ions pushed to the axon hillock to trigger the action potential, then the nerve will "fire". If not enough Na ions are caused to congregate at the axon hillock by either means, then the action potential will not occur, and there will be no transmission of a nerve impulse.
What occurs at the synapes when a nerve impluse arrives?
When a nerve impulse arrives at a synapse, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters from the presynaptic neuron into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptor sites on the postsynaptic neuron, causing a change in its membrane potential. This change can either excite or inhibit the postsynaptic neuron, influencing whether an action potential is generated.
What is the present tense of the verb must?
Must is the present tense. I must You must He,She and It must We must You must They must
What is the part of the eye that converts light energy to electricity into electrical signals?
First you must understand how light is transferred into an image by the eye. Located in the retina at the back of the eye are millions of photoreceptors. The way I understand them to work is they are constantly blocking any impules from themselves to the next connection, ganglions. When light hits these potoreceptors, the impulse is released, travels through the ganglion, and then is transmitted to the actual optic nerve. So according to this question, the photoreceptors are the trigger of light to impulse, but the answer to your question is the ganglion that transmitts the impulse to the optic nerve.
What does the impulse-momentum theorem state?
Impulse equals change in momentum. "Apex" The final momentum of any object (or collection of objects) must equal to its initial momentum plus any impulse imparted to the object (or collection of objects).
