What would happen to part of an axon if it is cut so that it is no longer connected to its nerve cell?
there wouldn't be an impulse
. This can be seen in the injury of the breaking of the backbone/cutting of the spinal cord
. The grey matter of the spinal cord is composed of motor neuron
and accessory (?) neuron axons, and when these are cut, the impulses cannot be transmitted to the dendrites of the next neuron, or for that matter the effector. This results in paralysis from the site of injury down.

Is your optic nerve atached to your retina?
yes it is, and the optic nerve is attached to your brain.
What would happen to me if i didn't have nerve cells?
Without nerve cells, you would not be able to feel sensations, move your muscles, or process information in your brain. You would essentially be paralyzed and unable to interact with the world around you. Nerve cells are essential for all basic functions in the body.
How would a nerve carrying impulses from your brain to your eyelids be different to one carrying impulses to your heart?
The nerve carrying impulses from your brain to your eyelids would be a cranial nerve, such as the oculomotor nerve (responsible for eyelid movement), while the nerve carrying impulses to your heart would be part of the autonomic nervous system, such as the vagus nerve (regulating heart rate). Additionally, the nerve to the heart would primarily involve motor signals, while the nerve to the eyelids would involve sensory and motor signals for eyelid function.
What would happen if the optic nerve were severed?
If there was no nervous system then you would not be reading this as you would be dead. You'd be dead because the nervous system consists of the brain, the spine and the retina. If there was no nervous system you wouldn't have a brain.
What will happen if the nerve cell stopped working?
If a nerve cell stopped working, it would be unable to transmit nerve impulses, resulting in disruption of communication between the brain and various parts of the body. This can lead to problems with muscle function, sensation, and coordination. Ultimately, the affected individual may experience symptoms related to the specific functions of the nerve cell that has stopped working.
Suppose a portion of an axon is cut so that it is no longer connected to its nerve cell body. what effect would that have on transmission of impulses?
you can have a disease of that adnormality event in your Nervous system
What would happen if you went to hear one of Shakespeare's plays?
nothing would happen but it would be quite nerve racking
What happen if a man's liver has nerve?
There would be no alcoholics in the world.
What would happen if the anterior ramus of the spinal nerve is damaged or transected?
The end organ or muscle innervated by that particular spinal nerve component would atrophy.
What would happen if nerve cells were not covered in layer of insulation?
i dont kmepr
What would happen if the brain and spinal cord didn't have nerve cells?
death
What would happen if a ventral root were impaired?
The motor function supplied by those nerve would be impared.
What would happen if you connected a positive cable to both terminals?
***********BOOM**************
Would there be a loss of sensory or motor function when someone damages the dorsal root of a spinal nerve?
Yes this can happen when any nerve is damaged but this is a greater danger if its an actual Spinal Nerve.
What would happen if the ventral root of a spinal nerve were damage or transected?
There are a number of things that would happen if the ventral root of a spinal nerve were damage or transected, This would mainly cause the loss of the sensory function and there would be neuropathic pain among other effects.
What would happen if you connected two brains by an electric cord?
Absolutely nothing.
What would happen if you connected two megaphones together?
It will make a loud noise.
