State of an unstimulated neuron's membrane?
An unstimulated neuron's membrane is polarized, with a negative charge inside the cell relative to the outside. This resting membrane potential is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane, particularly sodium and potassium ions. The neuron is ready to generate an action potential when stimulated.
What neuron is before a synapse?
The synapse consists of the two neurons, one of which is sending information to the other. The sending neuron is known as the pre-synaptic neuron (i.e. before the synapse) while the receiving neuron is known as the post-synaptic neuron (i.e. after the synapse).
What is a presynaptic neuron?
a neuron from the axon terminal of which an electrical impulse is transmitted across a synaptic cleft to the cell body or one or more dendrites of a postsynaptic neuron by the release of a chemical neurotransmitter.
What is the first motor neuron in an autonomic pathway called?
The first motor neuron in an autonomic pathway is called a preganglionic neuron. It originates in the central nervous system and synapses with a postganglionic neuron in an autonomic ganglion.
What is a motor neuron attached to?
A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.
What is an unstimulated neuron called?
a polarized neuron (at least I think that's the technically correct term)
State of an unstimulated neuron's membrane?

This resting membrane potential is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane, particularly sodium and potassium ions. The neuron is ready to generate an action potential when stimulated.
Is unstimulated a word?
Yes.
What chemicals are used to transmit impulses through the neurons?
the transmission of a nerve impulse along a neuron from one end to the other occurs as a result of chemical changes across the membrane of the neuron. The membrane of an unstimulated neuron is polarized that is there is a difference in electrical.
What accounts for the resting membrane potential seen in unstimulated nerve and muscle cells?
Sodium-potassium pump
Where is the neuron?
The Inter-neuron (also known as the local circuit neuron, relay neuron or the association neuron) is the neuron which connects the afferent and the efferent neurons in the neural pathways.
Why is a neuron called an interneuron?
A neuron is called a inter-neuron because that specific neuron takes impulse from one neuron to a next neuron. For example your sensory neuron sends a impulse that you had felt a hot object. It goes through the spine to a inter-neuron to a motor neuron (this processes is called a reflex). Then the motor neuron tells your muscles in your hand to move
Define relay neuron?
a relay neuron is the neuron that picks up the message from the sensory neuron and delivers it to the motor neuron in the spinal cord or the brain
What is relative permeability of potassium ions in unstimulated cells?
The relative permeability of potassium ions in unstimulated cells is generally high, as potassium ions play a key role in maintaining the cell's resting membrane potential. This allows for potassium ions to move across the cell membrane more easily than other ions.
What is the 3 types of neuron?
one type of neuron is the motor neuron
What type of neuron connects to a muscle?
A motor or efferent neuron.
What is intermixed neuron?
a neuron which recieve both messages from afferent and efferent neuron...
