Nerve impulses travel up to 250 miles per hour. 119m/s (muscles)
76.2m/s (touch)
0.61m/s (pain) 100 m/s (passive)
20 - 30 m/s (thinking) "Depending on the type of fiber, the neural impulse travels at speed ranging from a sluggish 2 miles per hour to, in some myelinated fibers, a breackneck 200 or more miles per hour. But even this top speed is 3 million times slower than the speed of electricity through a wire."
What else can I help you with?
What carries electrical messages from the brain to the heart?
Nerves, the nervous system most of which travel through the spine at some point.
How do the messages travel though body?
Most of the messages are carried by the nervous system around the body. Others are carried by the hormones.
How does messages go to your brain?
Messages are sent to your brain through your nervous system. Nerve cells called neurons transmit signals through electrical and chemical processes. When a stimulus is detected by sensory receptors, such as touch or sound, nerve impulses are generated and travel through the nervous system to the brain for interpretation.
How fast does information travel through the nervous system?
ok
Why is the nervous system so slow compared to the endodrine system?
It's not, the nervous system is much faster than the endocrine system.The nature of the messages. The nervous system's messages are transported as electrical impulses/neurotransmitters, whereas the endocrine system transports messages as hormonesThe transport of the messages. The messages in the nervous system are transported along the membrane of neurons. The endocrine system transports hormones though the bloodstreamBecause of this, the nervous system usually produces a response within milliseconds, whereas the endocrine system may take seconds to days to respond. The duration of the response also differs between the two systems, the nervous system stops quickly after the stimulant stops, but the endocrine response may continue after the stimulus is removed.
In the book the pearl why is the town like a nervous system?
The town in "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck is compared to a nervous system because news and gossip travel rapidly through its inhabitants, just like how impulses travel through a nervous system. It highlights the interconnectedness of the community and how quickly information can spread.
How are messages carried from part of the body to another?
rthe nerves
How signals move through the nervous system?
In the nervous system, electrical signals travel throughout the brain and into the body via nerves and nerve fibers. Electrical signals are how the brain tells the body what it should do.
How Nervous system carries message?
The nervous system carries messages through a network of nerve cells called neurons. When a stimulus is detected, electrical signals are generated in the neurons and travel along the nerve cells in the form of action potentials. These action potentials allow for communication between different parts of the body and are transmitted across synapses to relay messages between neurons.
Can germs travel through your spine?
This would be a rare situation, but if germs get into the cerebro-spinal fluid, then they would be able to travel through the spine.
What body system sends out chemical messages?
The endocrine system is responsible for sending out chemical messages in the form of hormones. These hormones are secreted by glands and travel through the bloodstream to target organs and tissues, regulating various bodily functions such as metabolism, growth, and mood. This system works in conjunction with the nervous system to maintain homeostasis and coordinate complex processes in the body.
How does your brain connect to your boby?
1.don't ask me 2. who ever asked this question either can't spell BODY or is really young
