What else can I help you with?
Part of the nerve cell that first receives the nervous impulse is the?
The dendrite of a neuron usually receives a chemical signal from another neuron, although a cell body (soma), or sometimes even an axon, of another neuron can receive the signal.Synapses which occur between an axon and a dendrite are called axodendritic synapses, while synapses between an axon and a cell body are called axosomatic synapses, and synapses between an axon and an axon are called axoaxonic synapses.
Would you expect synapses to occur in grey matter or in white matter?
Synapses are seen more in grey matter because dendrites meet with axonites in grey matter and dendrite is a part of grey matter.
Can a nerve impulse occur if the excitatory and inhibitory effects are equal?
no
What are the differences between axodendritic and axosomatic synapses in terms of their structure and function?
Axodendritic synapses occur between the axon terminal of one neuron and the dendrites of another neuron, while axosomatic synapses occur between the axon terminal and the cell body (soma) of another neuron. In terms of structure, axodendritic synapses are more common and allow for communication between neurons, while axosomatic synapses are less common and are involved in regulating the firing of the postsynaptic neuron.
Where is the synapes located?
A synapse is the junction in between neurones where the original electrical impulses being used to send messages to and from receptor and effector, must be converted into a chemical form and cross a gap between the dendrite and axon terminal. This gap is also commonly known as a synaptic cleft. Now since these synapses are used for neurons to communicate with each other, since neurons cannot communicate directly. Neurones occur all over the body as parts of the nervous system so therefore so too must synapses occur lest the presence of the neurones would be pointless. SUMMARY : Synapses occur throughout the body, wherever there are senses present.
Where can chemical reactios occur?
they can occur anywhere
Where do rouge waves occur?
Anywhere normal waves occur.
Where and why do floods occur?
a flood can occur anywhere. It happens when there is a lot of
What will occur when an excitatory postsynaptic potential EPSP is being generated on the dendritic membrane?
A single type of channel will open, permitting simultaneous flow of sodium and potassium.
Where can repossession occur?
anywhere and at anytime
Do hailstorms occur in IL?
Hailstorms can occur anywhere, with the right conditions.
How do the different types of synapses, such as axodendritic, axosomatic, and axoaxonic, contribute to the communication between neurons in the nervous system?
Different types of synapses, like axodendritic, axosomatic, and axoaxonic, play specific roles in how neurons communicate in the nervous system. Axodendritic synapses occur between the axon terminal of one neuron and the dendrites of another, allowing for the transmission of signals. Axosomatic synapses connect the axon terminal to the cell body, influencing the neuron's activity. Axoaxonic synapses regulate the release of neurotransmitters at the axon terminal, modulating communication between neurons. Overall, these different types of synapses help facilitate the flow of information in the nervous system.
