What are the only two types of cells that have excitable membranes?
neurons and muscle cells
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
What muscle contains self excitable cells?
caridac
What kind of cells are excitable?
Nerve, cardiac and muscle cells have action potentials.
What cell types are in the nervous tissue?
1. Neurons. 2. Neurological Cells. 3. Schwann cells
What are the only two types of cells that have excitable membranes?
neurons and muscle cells
Are Excitable cells like neurons are more permeable to sodium than to potassium?
More permeable to K than Na
What are impulse-conducting cells that process properties of excitability and conductibility?
Neurons are impulse conducting cells that process properties of excitability and conductibility.
What is stimulus threshold?
ST - In regards to excitable cell (i.e. neurons) the minimum mV need to trigger a AP (action potential) and is around -40mV (although this may vary depending on the cell). In additional to this; excitable cells (i.e. neurons) shows an all-or-nothing property, such that if the stimulus threshold is not met the action potential will not be created.
What part of a neuron would probably be affected most by the application of Novocain?
Novocain blocks calcium channels. Voltage-dependent calcium channels are a group of ion channels found in the membrane of excitable cells such as the axons of neurons and glial cells.
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
What kind of cells are in the brain?
Neurons are brain cells
What type of technique is referred to as clamping?
The patch clamp technique is a laboratory technique in electrophysiology that allows the study of single or multiple ion channels in cells. The technique can be applied to a wide variety of cells, but is especially useful in the study of excitable cells such as neurons, cardiomyocytes, muscle fibers and pancreatic beta cells.
What are the Difference of neurons and neuroglia cells?
Neurons are conducting cells in the nervous system and neuroglia do not conduct, but are helper cells to the neurons.
What muscle contains self excitable cells?
caridac
What kind of cells are excitable?
Nerve, cardiac and muscle cells have action potentials.
What cell types are in the nervous tissue?
1. Neurons. 2. Neurological Cells. 3. Schwann cells
