What else can I help you with?
A painful tangled mass of nerve fibers that sometimes develop following the amputation of a limb or improper repair of an axon is called a?
Neuroma
What is The name of the Microscopic nerve fibers in the myocardium?
the microscopic nerve fibers are called chemocytes
The short branched nerve fibers on the nerve cell that are the receptive areas of the neuron are known as the?
the short branched nerve fibers on the nerve cell are called dendrites
A bundle of nerve fibers?
The bundle of the nerve fibers is a collection of the threadlike extension of the nerve cell that consists of the myelin sheath and axon in the nervous system. There are nerve fibers in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system.
Which of the following types of nerve fiber possesses the fastest speed of impulse propagation?
Myelinated A fibers have the fastest speed of impulse propagation among nerve fibers.
Which of the following is secreted by nerve fibers in the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland?
antidiuretic hormone
What surrounds each bundle of nerve fibers?
Each bundle of nerve fibers is surrounded by connective tissue called the perineurium. This protective layer helps to support and protect the bundle of nerve fibers as they travel throughout the body.
What is non-myelinated nerve fiber?
a nerve fiber that lacks the fatty myelin insulating sheath. Such fibers form the gray matter of the nervous system, as distinguished from the white matter of myelinated fibers. Also called nonmedullated nerve fiber.
Which nerve fiber do impulses travel slowly?
Unmyelinated nerve fibers conduct impulses more slowly than myelinated nerve fibers. Myelinated nerve fibers have a fatty substance called myelin sheath that allows for faster transmission of impulses compared to unmyelinated fibers without this sheath.
What do you call collection of nerve fibers in the brain longitudinal in form?
The collection of nerve fibers in the brain that are longitudinal in form is called a "fasciculus." Fasciculi are bundles of nerve fibers that travel together and share a common function or destination within the brain.
What is a group of nerve fibers in the central nervous system is called a?
nucleus
Afferent nerve fibers enter the part of the spinal cord called?
Afferent nerve fibers enter the spinal cord through the dorsal roots.
