What cell carry messages to and from the different parts the body?
Neuron carries messages from different parts of the body.
Do tiny vibrations carry sound through the air?
Vibrations through some medium ARE sound. Vibrations through the air are just one example. The air vibrates and when the vibrations hit human ear drums, they are heard.
What do the leaves of a plant do?
the leaf takes in gases through stomata (little holes). Also the leaves carry out photosynthesis and absorb sunlight, i think through chlorophyll
What will happen if there is moisture in refrigeration system?
1.It can enters to the compressor through suction line and can damages the parts of the compressor.2.it can carry out
What enters optical fiber at the transmitter end?
Optical fiber is used to carry light ... either visible or else infra-red. So the source you want to use is a stable, reliable source of light, that's small enough to efficiently couple into the tiny window at the end of the fiber, and whose brightness can be changed easily and fast in order to put information onto the light (modulate it). It also helps if the light consists entirely of a single color (wavelength), because different wavelengths travel down the fiber at different speeds, so multiple wavelengths could get spread out and arrive at the far end in a real mess. The best, most widely used source available today is the laser diode.
What kind of light is used to carry information through optical fibers?
The light used in optical fibres is either visible or infra red like my super whizzie broadband....
What is the traveling of concentrated light through long tiny fibers of glass to carry sound?
Fiber optics does not transmit sound. The long tiny fibers are long narrow strands of glass or a glass-like material generally referred to as optical fibers. Light travels inside these strands with little loss. Modulating the light makes the light into a signal and so the light can carry information. One common use of optical fibers to transmit information is the use to communicate phone calls, so sound is convered to a light signal and transmitted through optical fibers and at the other end it can be converted back into sound. Optical fibers do not transmit sound but transmit light that contains the information abut the sound. The phase "concentrated light" does not really apply to this process in an obvious way because "concentrated" is a term with meaning only in a comparative sense. Light is transmitted through optical fibers and carries digital information of all sorts.
Optical fibers can carry light long distances because?
The light inside them travels parallel to the insid surface of the fibers
Efferent fibers carry information from to .?
The Axons
When is total internal reflection used to carry light?
It is used in optical fibers. It is also the reason we see a rainbow and why diamonds have their brilliance.
Long thin strands of glass or plastic that carry light for long distances without allowing the light to fade are called?
optical fibers
How does sound travel through land lines?
If by "land lines" you mean electrical wires, cables, or optical fibers, then sound doesn't travelthrough these. They're used to carry electric currents or light beams from place to place, whichare continuously being changed in pre-arranged ways, to carry information that make it possibleto construct a copy of the sound at the receiving end.
What fibers carry information from the skin joints and skeletal muscles to the central nervous system?
parasympathetic
Are dorsal and ventral roots spinal nerves?
The ventral roots contains motor fibers, responsible for motion, whereas the dorsal sensory fibers, responsible for touch and feeling.
Can elecricity be transfered by optical fibers?
No.The idea of optic fibers is to transfer light as in pulses of information.We use optic fibers during surgery too, and these fibers can carry high energy beams.Thought of mind:It is possible to convert electricity into light, transmit it through the cable and then use a solar-panel at other end to convert back to electricity again.The loss would most likely be great. The energy would need to be "packed" together in a tiny lazer beam. This beam would possibly burn through your Solar-panel at the other end.
Does the auditory nerve have blood in it?
No. Nerves are not blood-filled. They are a bundle of fibers that carry information from parts of your body back to your brain, where your brain then processes that information.
Why are optical fibres flexible?
This is because they can carry more information than copper wire and alsoare less expensive to repair
