What else can I help you with?
What is the space between neurons called?
The space between neurons is called the synapse.
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
Is neurons short hair like fibers that receives information?
Neurons are specialized cells that transmit electrical and chemical signals in the body. They have long, slender extensions called dendrites and axons that allow them to communicate with other neurons. Dendrites receive incoming signals, while axons transmit signals to other neurons or cells.
What is the cell body has many short strands branching out from it is called what?
The structure you're referring to is called dendrites. Dendrites are specialized extensions of the cell body in neurons that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body.
Neurons with the ability to monitor the environment are called what?
Sensory neurons are the type of neurons that have the ability to monitor the environment. They are specialized to detect stimuli from the external or internal environment and transmit this information to the brain for processing.
What are the long arms of neurons called?
axons
What are the short fibers that extend from the neuron called?
The short fibers that extend from a neuron are called dendrites. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body of the neuron.
What are the neurons that enable you to grasp objects by relaying outgoing messages to the muscles in your arms and hands?
motor neurons
What neurons that carry impulse to the brain and spinal cord called?
These are called efferent neurons. The one that carry impulses away are afferent. Afferent (A) are away (A).
What are long arm chromosomes is called?
Long arm chromosomes are called q arms, while short arm chromosomes are called p arms. These arms are distinguished based on their relative length and position in the chromosome.
What are neurons called that detect stimuli in the skin and eye?
sensory neurons
What is the space between neurons called?
The space between neurons is called the synapse.
What is the name of the short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response?
The short pathway that carries the impulse for an automatic response is called a reflex arc. It involves sensory neurons, interneurons in the spinal cord, and motor neurons to quickly produce a reflex action in response to a stimulus, bypassing the brain.
Neurons that function within the brain and spinal cord are called?
interneurons also called central or association neurons
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
What are neurons that control skeletor effectors called?
Motor Neurons
Is neurons short hair like fibers that receives information?
Neurons are specialized cells that transmit electrical and chemical signals in the body. They have long, slender extensions called dendrites and axons that allow them to communicate with other neurons. Dendrites receive incoming signals, while axons transmit signals to other neurons or cells.
