What are the 3 structural components of a neuromuscular response?
The three structural components of a neuromuscular response are the motor neuron, the neuromuscular junction, and the muscle fiber. The motor neuron transmits signals from the brain or spinal cord to the muscle, the neuromuscular junction is where the motor neuron and muscle fiber meet and communicate, and the muscle fiber is the contractile tissue that generates force in response to nerve signals.
What kinds of compounds in the body transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells?
Neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine transmit impulses between nerve and muscle cells. These chemical messengers are released at the synapse where nerve and muscle cells meet, allowing for the transmission of signals that trigger muscle contraction.
What is the function of the neuromuscular junction is to?
Includes the axon terminal of a motor neuron plus the motor end plate of a muscle fiber. Is where the axons of motor nerves meet the muscle & transmit messages from the brain which cause the muscle to contract & relax.
If muscle contractions use ATP at or below the maximum rate of ATP generation by mitochondria the muscle fiber will what?
If muscle contractions use ATP at or below the maximum rate of ATP generation by mitochondria, the muscle fiber will be able to sustain the contraction for a longer period without fatigue, as the ATP production can meet the energy demands of the muscle activity.
What site where the motor neuron and muscle cell meet is called the?
The site where a motor neuron and muscle cell meet is called the neuromuscular junction. This is where the motor neuron releases neurotransmitters that signal the muscle cell to contract.
What is the point where two nerve processes meet?
The point where two nerve processes meet is called a synapse. At the synapse, a chemical or electrical signal is transmitted from one neuron to another, allowing for communication between nerve cells in the nervous system.
What happens when you hurt your foot in a track meet and you cant walk on it?
you have what is called nerve damage, i recently got it and it hurts.
Is one way to meet your fiber needs is to choose foods made from whole grains?
Yes, this is one way to meet fiber needs.
At what junction do nerves contact skeletal muscle fibers?
Motor neurons meet the muscle cells at neuromuscular junctions. Neurotransmitters are passed from the nerve across a synaptic cleft to the muscle to make it contract. Any damage to this nerve will mean that those cells will not contract (move).
The area where some fibers from the eye cross over to the opposite side is called the?
Each eye contains an optic nerve, as the meet at the optic chiasm, some of the nerve fibers cross over. This sensitive area is referred to as the optic nerve pathway crossover.
How does the nerve signal move through the neuron?
in transmitting a nerve signal such as from your hand to your brain, several neurons are involved. Nerve cells can receive and transmit signals.the dendrites of one neuron are close to the axon of another neuron. The point where neurons meet is called a synapse
What has bands where different kinds of muscle proteins meet?
Striated muscle.
