What neurons are affected in primary lateral sclerosis?
PLS affects a part of the neuron called the cell body (or soma). Specifically, it is the cell bodies of upper motor neurons that are affected.
Which part of a neuron would probably be affected most by lead poisoning?
The Synaptic knob
How does reflex occur?
This is what happens:a receptor detects a stimulus (change in the environment)a sensory neuron sends a signal to the relay neuronthe relay neuron sends the signal to the motor neuronthe motor neuron sends a signal to the affected partthe affected part produces a response
What part of the body is affected by primary lateral sclerosis?
The symptoms of the disorder become progressively worse, with muscles typically affected in the following order: legs and feet, main part of the body (the trunk), arms and hands, and face.
The part of the neuron that has branched extensions that are specialized to receive information are the?
dendrites. Dendrites are specialized structures on a neuron that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body. They play a crucial role in integrating information from multiple sources to determine the neuron's response.
Would multiple sclerosis affected schwann cells or oligodendrocytes?
Schwann cells are cells that are part of the nervous system, which warps around a nerve fiber and forms the nerve-insulating layer. Schwann cells are not affected greatly in multiple sclerosis, as MS is an autoimmune disease of the CENTRAL nervous system, and Schwann cells are only present in the PERIPHERAL nervous system. In the CNS, oligodendrocytes are responsible for insulating the axons with myelin, but are hardly affected in MS, as MS causes destruction of myelin, not the myelinating agents.
What part of the neuron carries impulses to the neuron?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
Which part of the Schwann cell forms a neuron husk?
Motor Neuron
Which part of the neuron can carry information for long distances?
The axon is the part of the neuron that can carry information for long distances.
The part of the neuron that facilitates synaptic transmission of a signal to another neuron is?
Soma
Neurons are part of the peripheral nervous system?
Sensory neuron and motor neuron.
What is the part of neuron that facilitates synoptic transmission of signal to another neuron?
synapse
