The contrast between two poles of a neuron is typically referred to as the "polarization" of the neuron. This involves the difference in charge between the inside and outside of the neuron's membrane, which is crucial for the generation and propagation of action potentials. The two poles are commonly described as the axon (which conducts impulses away from the cell body) and the dendrites (which receive signals). This polarization is essential for the neuron's ability to transmit electrical signals efficiently.
What else can I help you with?
What do we call the imaginary line halfway between the poles?
That's the Equator.
What is the space between 2 neurons where electrical and chemical signals jump from neuron neuron?
It's a 'bridge' where the neurotransmitters jump from one neuron to the other. It is called synapse. This is a simple notion that I have about this subject. For a complete review involving this part of the brain and how it works see the link to "Neuron" below.
What is the nerve cell call?
It's a neuron
What do you call the opening across which one neuron communicates with another neuron?
The Synapse, also called the synaptic cleft.
What do you call the end of magnets?
The ends of a magnet are called the poles.
What do we call a the ends of a magnet?
poles
What do you call the skiing sticks?
'Sticks' used to ski are called skiing poles.
What do you call the gap between two neurons of which the neurotransmitter crosses so as to stimulate the nerve impulse to start in the next dendrite?
The gap between two neurons is called the synapse. Neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron and cross this synaptic cleft to bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, thereby triggering a nerve impulse in the next neuron. This process is essential for communication within the nervous system.
What you call the ends of a magnet?
poles
What you call the ends a magnet?
poles
What do you call the state of a neuron when it is firing a neural impulse?
Resting potential.
What do you call winds that blow between the equator and poles?
Winds that blow between the equator and the poles are generally referred to as "prevailing westerlies" in the mid-latitudes and "trade winds" in the tropics. The trade winds blow from east to west in the tropics, while the prevailing westerlies blow from west to east in the mid-latitudes. These winds are influenced by the Earth's rotation and temperature differences between the equator and the poles.
