Through electrical impulses travelling along nerves and neurons at speeds of over 120 mph. They travel from the occipital nerves in the backs of the eyes to the occipital lobe, which is located in the back of your brain.

How does the message from sound waves get to your brain?

Sound waves travel through the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. These vibrations are passed to the cochlea in the inner ear, where hair cells are stimulated and send signals to the auditory nerve. The auditory nerve then carries these signals to the brain, which processes and interprets the sound.


How do hair cells in the ear stimulate the auditory nerve?

Hair cells in the ear stimulate the auditory nerve by converting sound vibrations into electrical signals. When sound waves reach the ear, they cause the hair cells to move, which in turn triggers the release of neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters then activate the auditory nerve fibers, sending signals to the brain for processing and interpretation of sound.


Which cells go into the g0 phase?

The cells are alive and metabolically active.


Is there any difference in the length of the nerve cells in a rat and a giraffe?

Yes, there is a difference in the length of nerve cells in a rat and a giraffe. Giraffes have much longer nerve cells due to their significantly larger body size compared to rats. The length of nerve cells is proportional to the size of the organism and the distance signals need to travel.


What do branching cells do?

The shape of nerve cells makes them great for communicating signals between the brain and the rest of the body. Their great lenght helps these signals reach the brain quickly. A nerve cell's branching structure can connect several parts of the body at once

How does loss of nerve cells impact on the development of dimentia?

brain cells needs to communicate with each other by sending the message between cells in the form of electrical signals so if the nerve cell dies message wont reach the other cell causing dementia.


What is the job of nerve cells?

Branching cells, know as nerve cells shape make them great for communication signals between the brain and the rest of the body. Branching cells great length helps these signals reach the brain quickly.

Where are messages interpreted in the brain?

In most cases signals are sent to the brain through the nervous system. Individual signals are transfer from neuron to neuron in the form of chemical and electrical energy that eventually reach the brain.

How do nerve cell communicate with the brain?

Nerve cells communicate with the brain through electrical impulses. When a nerve cell is stimulated, it generates an electrical signal that travels along the cell's axon to reach the brain. Once in the brain, these signals are processed and interpreted as sensations or actions.


How does a message from the brain reach to the tongue?

It is important to know how the body works. Neurons fire from the brain down nerves into the tongue, to relay the message.
