What is stimuli impulse?

A stimulus is any event that evokes a specific response in an organism, while an impulse is a message carried by neurons in response to a stimulus. When a stimulus is detected by sensory receptors, it triggers an impulse that is transmitted through the nervous system to elicit a reaction or behavior.


How does an impulse differ from a stimulus?

a stimulus may be continous, an impulse ha a defined timeline


When the receptor have registered a the energy is converted to a electrochemical impulse?

Yes, when a receptor detects a stimulus, it triggers an electrochemical impulse to be sent along a nerve cell. This impulse travels to the brain where it is interpreted as a specific sensation or perception.


Which type of stimulus is detected by photoreceptors?

light


Is conducting stimulus strong enough to generate a nerve impulse?

Yes, a stimulus needs to reach a certain threshold level of strength in order to generate a nerve impulse. This threshold is required to depolarize the cell membrane and initiate the action potential. If the stimulus is not strong enough to reach this threshold, no nerve impulse will be generated.


What is the relationship between a stimulus and a reponse?

The stimulus is your bodies reaction to something, say you burnt your hand, this is the stimulus. The reaction is your bodies response to it. In this sense the stimulus will be sensed by sensory neurones which pass an electrical impulse through relay neurons until the impulse gets to the Central Nervous System. This then, gives out another impulse which travels down a Motor Neuron to the muscle telling your hand to be removed from the surface.....


What neuron picks up a stimulus?

A sensory Neuron picks up the stimulus from the environment and changes it into a nerve impulse.


What picks up a stimulus from the environment and changes it into a nerve?

A sensory Neuron picks up the stimulus from the environment and changes it into a nerve impulse.


What is the path a nerve impulse travels throughout your body from stimulus to response-?

A stimulus that cannot be detected at least 50 of the time is said to be?

Subliminal.


When is an impulse an electrical signal?

When a stimulus causes positively charged ions to diffuse into the neuron.


How do you reflexes help you?

the impulse from the stimulus is processed in the spinal cord and gives the response immediately they protect you
