The nerve impulse travels through and reaches the threshold potential which opens Na+ Channels in the cell membrane. The Na+ ions diffuse into cell. The charges reverse at that point on the neuron, and which the cell becomes depolarized.

What else can I help you with?
What system in your body helps move oxygen throughout your body?
The circulatory system helps move oxygen throughout your body.
What does the brainstem do a part from sending messages to the body?
It controls the axis and atlas which is connected to your vertebrae. This allows your head to move up and down and also right to left. It helps you move youre body in many directions and controls sending messages throughout your entire body.
What is the difference between motor and sensory neurons?
The main difference is that motor neurons move signals away from the central nervous system and spinal cord where as sensory neurons move signals towards the central nervous system and spinal cord.
How does movement of electrical impulse relate to the contraction of the chambers of the heart?
The movement of electrical impulses in the heart coordinates the contraction of its chambers. The impulses initiate the contraction by stimulating the muscle cells, causing them to contract in a coordinated way. This results in the rhythmic pumping action that drives blood flow through the heart and to the rest of the body.
Where are the sensory and motor cortex located?
The motor cortex is in the frontal lobe of the brain whilst the sensory cortex is in the parietal lobe. Another main difference is that the motor cortex controls movements of fine and gross motor skills whereas the sensory cortex controls feelings of touch and sensation.
How does the skeletal system interact with the sensory system?
The skeletal system is the framework of the human body and holds up the other body parts in place. When the sensory, or nervous, system uses the muscular system to move the body, the muscles move the skeleton as well.
What system in your body helps move oxygen throughout your body?
The circulatory system helps move oxygen throughout your body.
Can you define an impulse movement in dance?
An impulse move in dance is when the dancer "tweaks" his or her body suddenly. These movements look like sudden jerks or twitches.
What does the brainstem do a part from sending messages to the body?
It controls the axis and atlas which is connected to your vertebrae. This allows your head to move up and down and also right to left. It helps you move youre body in many directions and controls sending messages throughout your entire body.
What is the difference between motor and sensory neurons?
The main difference is that motor neurons move signals away from the central nervous system and spinal cord where as sensory neurons move signals towards the central nervous system and spinal cord.
If you accidentally step on a tack with your bare foot the pathway that the nerve impulse takes from your foot to your leg is called?
The pathway that the nerve impulse takes from your foot to your leg is called the sensory pathway. This pathway includes sensory neurons that carry signals from the foot to the spinal cord and then to the brain, where the sensation of pain is perceived and a motor response is initiated to move away from the tack.
What are the advantages of being bilaterally symmetric?
sensory organs at the front of the body and more streamlined (can move faster)
What sends a message to the central nerous system in your body?
Sensory receptors throughout the body detect stimuli such as touch, pain, temperature, and sound. These receptors then send signals along sensory neurons to the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) for processing and response.
What do sensory seizures consist of?
Sensory seizures begin with numbness or tingling in one area. The sensation may move along one side of the body or the back before subsiding.
Which part is forced to move blood throughout the body?
Veins and arteries
What is metastasized?
Cancer that can move throughout the body and spread to other organs
Where does an impulse move from on neuron to the other?
The impulse has to cross over a synapse to another neuron or an effector.
