What neuron is before a synapse?
The synapse consists of the two neurons, one of which is sending information to the other. The sending neuron is known as the pre-synaptic neuron (i.e. before the synapse) while the receiving neuron is known as the post-synaptic neuron (i.e. after the synapse).
What neuron connects an afferent neuron to an efferent neuron?
Afferent neurons go to the Brain while efferent neurons go down
At the threshold stimulus sodium ions start to move into the cell or out of cell to bring about the membrane depolarization?
For depolarisation to occur as part of an action potential, +40 mV inside the neuron fibre compared to outside the membrane. For summation after a synapse to determine whether the post-synaptic neuron will fire an action potential, the threshold is +20mV inside the neuron compared to the outside.
What is the part of the neuron that receives signals?
Dendrites are the receptors of a neuron.
What is somnambulate?
To walk while sleeping; sleepwalking
What effect do neurotransmitters from one neuron have on the next neuron?
The two major effects are excitatory and inhibitory. For example ACh leads to the post-synaptic cell's depolarization while GABA or glycine will hyperpolarize the post-synaptic cell. But this is all a simplification. Some synapses have an effect of neuromodulators sometimes released as a co-transmitter (e.g. NPY and epinephrine from sympathetic ganglionic neurons). In some situations the cotransmitter can have a mixture of effects.
Do axon contain a nucleus?
No, the axon is a fiber that emerges from a neuron, while the nucleus is in the center of the neuron.

Does A neuron expends energy while it maintains a resting potential?
yes it does

What is the part of the neuron that receives signals?
Dendrites are the receptors of a neuron.
What is the duration of While Parents Sleep?
The duration of While Parents Sleep is 1.2 hours.
When was While Parents Sleep created?
While Parents Sleep was created in 1935-09.
Which part of the neuron acts as a receiver for nerve impulses?
potassuimaxon terminals transmit info from their neuron to another, while dendrites receive info from other neurons.
What can dolphins do while they sleep?
they cant sleep pendejos!!
Communication within a neuron is electrical while communication between neurons is chemical.?
yes
