In neurons where does protein synthesis occur?
in the neuron cell body
What is the part of the neuron that carries messages?
Dendrites carry messages to a cell body of a neuron.
Which component of a neuron contains organelles and produces the protein and energy needed to carry out its functions?
cell body
Does dendrites contain nissl bodies?
Yes, dendrites contain Nissl bodies. Nissl bodies, also called Nissl substance or Nissl granules, are rough endoplasmic reticulum in the neuronal cell bodies and dendrites. They are responsible for protein synthesis in the neuron.
Which is the last part of the neuron to be involved in the transmission of a neural impulse towards the next neuron?
Signalling ALONG a neuron is electrical, but signalling BETWEEN neurons is a chemical process. Neuron A 'passes' a message onto the next by releasing chemicals called neurotransmitters , which are then taken up by neuron B. The point at which these neurotransmitters are released from the neuron A is called the 'terminal bouton' and is the end of its axon. More specifically, it is the presynaptic membrane OF the terminal bouton at which the passing on of a message occurs.
In neurons where does protein synthesis occur?
in the neuron cell body
What is the function of nissl granules in human neuron?
Nissl granules are rough endoplasmic reticulum. Therefore they are sites of protein synthesis.
What reflex does a a sensory neuron synapses directly on a motor neuron?
Monosynaptic reflex
In humans one function of an interneuron is to relay impulses directly from?
a sensory neuron to a motor neuron
What are the basic parts of neuron?
The three main parts of a neuron are the axon, the dendrites, and the soma (cell body). The axon carries information away from the soma and transmits it to other neurons. The dendrites receive information from other neurons. The soma contains the nucleus of the cell and protein synthesis occurs here.
The sensory receptor sensory neuron motor neuron and effector involved in a reflex form a?
A reflex arc.
What Three kinds of neutrons that would be involved in a reflex impulse?
They are neurons and not neutrons. You have afferent neuron. Then you have intermediate neuron and then you have the efferent neuron in the reflex arc.

May be involved in the transport of substances within a neuron?
Neurofibrils
How many motor neurons are involved in the descending motor pathways?
two motor neurons are always involved in descending motor pathways. the upper motor neuron and the lower motor neuron.
Where are Nissl bodies found?
Nissl bodies are stacks of endoplasmic reticulum in neurons. They are used to produced neurotrasmitterNissl body is rich in both bound and free ribosomes. As ribosome is the site for protein synthesis, nissl bodies r imp for formation of various proteins such as neurohormones.Protein synthesis of neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine.Synthesis of proteinsNissl bodies are believed to be the site of protein synthesisNissl bodies are just rough ER found in neurons. It is named as such after the person who 'discovered' them.
What type of neuron's involved in a knee jerk?
sensory neurones motor neurones
