The nervous system delivers nerve impulses to the brain through specialized cells called neurons. These neurons transmit electrical signals from receptors in the body to the brain via neural pathways. The structures involved in this process include sensory receptors, peripheral nerves, the spinal cord, and the brain.
What else can I help you with?
Which structure takes electrical signals to the brain?
The optic nerve carries electrical signals from the eyes to the brain for visual processing.
Do your ears connect to your brain?
There is a cranial nerve called the vestibulocochlear nerve which connects your inner ear to your brain stem.
Is ventricular systole responsible for nerve impulse?
No, ventricular systole refers to the contraction of the ventricles in the heart. Nerve impulses originate from specialized cells called neurons in the nervous system. These impulses are responsible for transmitting signals throughout the body, including to the heart to regulate its activity.
What carry the impulses from the ear to the brain?
The impulses from the ear are carried to the brain by the auditory nerve, also known as the eighth cranial nerve or vestibulocochlear nerve. This nerve is responsible for transmitting sound and balance information from the inner ear to the brainstem.
The signals generated by the rods and cones are carried to your brain by the?
Signals generated by rods and cones are carried to the brain by the optic nerve. This nerve transmits visual information from the retina to the brain's visual centers, where it is processed and interpreted to create a visual perception.
What functions does the nerve cells do?
they transfer nerve impulse to the brain which allows brain to function
What nerve carries the impulse to the brain from each eye?
The optic nerve
During a reflex the nerve impulse reaches?
the brain
What nerve structure speeds the passage of a nerve impulse?
Myelin sheath and nodes
What is the path of a nerve impulse from your leg to your brain and back to your leg?
A nerve impulse travels from your leg to your brain through sensory neurons. Once in the brain, the impulse is processed, and a response is generated. The response travels back to your leg through motor neurons to initiate movement or action.
Nerve fibers send an impulse to the brain when the waves reach the?
Cochlea.
How fast does a nerve impulse travels?
It 200 miles per hour And it can probally be in meters too.
What is the nerve impulse from your foot to your leg called?
The nerve impulse from your foot to your leg is called a sensory nerve signal or proprioceptive feedback. It helps transmit information about sensations such as touch, pressure, and position to the brain.
What is quicker a nerve impulse or a hormone?
nerve impulse
How many directions can a nerve impulse travel in?
A nerve impulse can travel in two directions: towards the brain (sensory or afferent pathway) to convey sensory information, and away from the brain (motor or efferent pathway) to control muscle movement or glandular secretion.
What is the name of the structure leading from the ear to the brain?
You have a nerve that carry the impulses from inner ear to brain. It is sensory nerve. It is the 8th nerve. It is called as vestibulocochlear nerve.
When a muscle contracts it does what?
In order for a muscle to contract, the brain sends a nerve impulse to the muscle it wants to contract. The nerve impulse triggers the potassium inside the muscle fiber cell to switch places with the calcium outside the cell wall, thereby feeding the cell and contracting the muscle. A second nerve impulse from the brain triggers the calcium to switch places with the potassium, releasing the contracted muscle.
