Are neuroglia or neuron likely to give rise to tumor why?

Neuroglia are non conductive and provide a support system for the neurons. They are not likely to spread, but doctors still treat them as malignant and treat the symptoms.


Who carries messages from the sense organs to the central nervous system?

other nerve cells... The brain is made up of nerve cells (also called neurons). There are neurons both in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system. The communication between neurons occurs with release of neurotransmitters (chemicals that affect the surface of neurons). The release of neurotransmitters occurs when an electrical impulse travels down the neuron and causes the neuron to "fire" off neurotransmitter. This electrical impulse is called an "action potential." The release of neurotransmitter can have one of two possible effects on the "receiving" neuron, depending on which neurotransmitter binds with which neuron. It can make the receiving neuron either more likely to fire (excitatory) or less likely to fire (inhibitory). The result of this activity in billions of neurons creates quite a symphony, including everything we call thought.


What will happen If you don't have good bacteria in your body?

Good bacteria perform several useful functions. In the intestines, they help you to digest food. They also help to fight off harmful bacteria, a function which is normally done on the skin, sometimes in the mouth, and in the intestines.


The main function of the peripheral nervous system is to?

The primary function of the nervous system is to help maintain the life of the organism.It senses external and internal events, rememberspast events and consequences, assesses whether those events are likely to promote or diminish likelihood of survival, and initiates actions accordingly.


How many nerve cells are there in the body?

billions. The exact number cannot be known. We can estimate that because the nervous system makes up about 5% of the human body, and the human body contains anywhere from 10 - 100 trillion cells, that about 0.5 - 5 trillion are nerve cells.

One finding of Albert Bandura's research on observational learning was that?

individuals can learn behaviors simply by observing others, without the need for direct reinforcement or punishment. This is known as social learning theory, and it suggests that people can acquire new skills and knowledge by observing the actions of others and the consequences of those actions.

What part of nervous system worked when you are pricked by a needle?

This is a reflex that the peripheral nervous system was involved in. The prick was noted by sensory neurons which carried information into the spinal cord and synapsed with motor neurons which made you react, most likely by pulling away.

If you double the input of a function and it results in half the output and if you triple the input and it results in a third of the output what can be guessed about the function?

~the function is most likely inversely proportional. ~more input results in less output.
