What are the two ways main ways in which neurons are able to react stimuli?

Nerves receive signals meaning that they can respond to a stimulus. Once a stimulus is received by a nerve cell it converts it to a neural impulse which passes along the nerve. Nerves are able to transmit impulses along the length of the nerve cell in the form of an electrical signal.


What are facts about nerves?

Well. Nerves are quite amazing! I happened to be right in the middle of a project about nerves, so I'll share some of my research with ya ^_^ Remember your first time riding a bike without training wheels? It was probably really hard. This is because your nerves hadn't learned the pathway of motion (or the correct path to send messages through). When You finally DID ride your bike, you improved because your nerves had created a "muscle memory". A nerve is a fiber that sends messages through your body telling certain things what to do. Lets say you're about to be hit. What do you do? You probably put out your arm in front of you in some sort of defense. Your nerves are telling you to do that, because they sense that something is about to happen. Nerves are made up of TONS of Neurons. The fibrous part of your nerves (neurons) is covered by a fatty material called myelin. This is why messages are able to travel so quickly through your nerves. At the end of the nerve, a synaptic terminal full of extremely tiny sacs which hold neurotransmitter chemicals transfers impulses from nerve to nerve, or from a nerve to a muscle cell. Electrical nerve impulses travel through the neurons, which then drop off the impulses in these sacs and release the chemicals. These chemicals find their way to a different neuron, which sparks an electrical charge that moves the nerve impulse forward. You'd think this takes about 2-3 minutes, but actually a neuron fires 500 times per second when they're "excited". Firing basically means to send out the neurotransmitter chemicals. Hope this helped with whatever you were doing ^_^
