What neuron moves the impulses to the brain?
The brain is the control, and the whole reaction of a reflex arc starts with a stimulus, ie, touching a hot flame, the detector of this stimulus being the receptor. The electrical impulses travel through the sensory neuron to which it is then carried to the synapse (impulses reach the brain) the energy is then transferred across the synapse, to the relay neuron and then to the motor neuron, finally reaching the effector, (mainly muscle or gland) to move away the body part.
Small space between two neurons?
Part of the brain that integrates sensory information
How does the myelin sheath and synapse affect nerve impulses speed up or slow down?
Myelin sheath insulates axons for speedier signaling
What is information acquired by chemical stimuli or response to the environment that is directed to the brain?
it's respiration
Which one of the following phrases describes the transmission of impulses to and from nerve cells?
There is a connection between two brain cells, called a synapse. When it reaches the end of one cell, the electric impulse transforms itself into a chemical substance, and is transferred from one cell to another. When it reaches the second cell, it is again transformed intro an electric impulse.
What any drug that inhibits transmission of sensory impulses at a synapse called?
Drugs that inhibit neurotransmission at the site are called analgesics. Opioids are the most common type of this drug.
What is any drug that inhibits trans mission of sensory impulse at a synapse called?
Pain medication

Neural transmission across a mammalian synaptic gap is accomplished by?
impulses causing the release of a chemical signal and its diffusion across the synapse.
Can impulses pass in 2 directions across a synapse?
no
Are motor neurons an electrical synapse?
no,motor neurons are not electrical synapse but are normal nerve cells.they help in transmission of electrical impulses from the site of stimulus towards the spinal cord.the impulses have to travel and cross certain spaces or junctions between two consecutive nerves,the axon bulb of one to dendrites of next neuron.
What is the small space between neurons where impulses pass?
Synapse
What is the space between two adjacent nerve cells?
its known as the synapse. Through the synapse is where impulses travel from brain cell to brain cell.
What interprets messages transmitted by sensory neurons?
it was the synapse
Small space between two neurons?
Part of the brain that integrates sensory information
What is the space that impulses jump across by means of a transmitting chemical?
synapse
How do impulses cross synapse between neurons?
By a chemical released by an axon.
