What is the bundle of nerve fibers that send messages to the brain which interprets them?
The nerves that carry impulses toward the brain are called efferent nerves. Afferent nerves carry impulses away. In way to remember this is afferent equals away.
Where does a nerve impulse start?
A nerve impulse starts at the dendrite
How are neural impulses generated?
The neural impulse is the electrical charge that goes from the nerve receptor to the brain. They are generated when the nerve receptor detects a foreign stimuli.
The duration of a nerve impulse is approximately?
A nerve impulse is approximately 1 millisecond.
What part of the eye sends the image through an electrical impulse to the brain?
Light rays reflect off the object and into the eye where they are refracted by the cornea and focussed by the lens on to the retina, the optic nerve then carries the messages to the brain and an image is formed.
What functions does the nerve cells do?
they transfer nerve impulse to the brain which allows brain to function
What nerve carries impulses away from the brain?
Motor or efferent nerves.
What nerve carries the impulse to the brain from each eye?
The optic nerve
During a reflex the nerve impulse reaches?
the brain
What is the difference between afferent and efferent pathways?
The major difference is the direction of travel for nerve impulses. In the afferent nervous system, the impulses are traveling away from the brain - these tend to be motor impulses. In the efferent nervous system, the impulses are traveling towards the brain - these tend to be sensory impulses.
What branch of a nerve carries a message to the brain from a muscle?
afferent
Whiat nerve the afferent or efferent instructs your brain to avoid touching something hot?
afferent.
Nerve fibers send an impulse to the brain when the waves reach the?
Cochlea.
What is the bundle of nerve fibers that send messages to the brain which interprets them?

How fast does a nerve impulse travels?
It 200 miles per hour And it can probally be in meters too.
What is a neuron that transmits a nerve impulse toward the central nervous system is called what?
A sensory neuron transmits a nerve impulse towards the central nervous system. These nerve cells activated by input, transmits sensory information.
What is quicker a nerve impulse or a hormone?
nerve impulse
