What is it called when muscles and nerves group together?
When muscles and nerves group together, it is called a motor unit. A motor unit consists of a single motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates. When the motor neuron fires, all the muscle fibers in the motor unit contract together.
If you take out all the nerves in the human body and linked them together how long would it be?
The total length of all the nerves in the human body is estimated to be around 45 miles (72 kilometers). This length includes all the nerves in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) as well as the peripheral nerves throughout the body. When all these nerves are taken out and connected end to end, they would stretch approximately 45 miles in length, forming a complex network that facilitates communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
What part of the nervous system consists of all of the spinal nerves and cranial nerves is the?
The peripheral nervous system consists of all the spinal nerves and cranial nerves. These nerves connect the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to the rest of the body, allowing for communication and control of bodily functions.
Are all nerves thinner than a strand of hair?
No, not all nerves are thinner than a strand of hair. Some nerves can be thicker, depending on their location and function in the body.
How long are the nerves in the human body?
The nerves in the human body can vary in length, but the longest nerve in the body is the sciatic nerve, which can be up to about 18 inches long.
What is the length of the nerves in the body?
All of the nerves together in your body are long enough to stretch around the entire Earth 2 1/2 times.
How are nerves formed?
Nerves are formed in a late stage of development, when some of the cells composing the nerve cord and the brain send out long fibers bound together in bundles (nerves).
Mixed nerves are all spinal nerves?
All the spinal nerves in their distribution are mixed nerves

What are the nerves to and from the body?
There are no nerves to and from the body. All nerves are within the body.
How long is the brain nerves if you lay them out end to end?
The brain contains billions of nerves, which are extremely thin and can vary in length. If all the nerves in the brain were stretched out end to end, they could span over 100,000 miles.
What is the network of the sensory and motor nerves?
The network of sensory and motor nerves together is called the peripheral nervous system.
What term is define as the site where two nerves come together?
The term synapse is the site where two nerves come together.
Why a peripheral nerve such as the sciatic nerve can contain nerve fiber from several spinal nerves?
The reason why a peripheral nerve such as the sciatic nerve can contain nerve fiber from several spinal nerves is owing to nerve plexuses. These are networks of nerves all tangled together and found mostly in the limbs.
Where is the dendrites located at?
dendrites are located at the nerves together with axons.
Can two Scorpio's be together?
Yes, but they can get on each other's nerves.
