What nueron conducts impulses faster?
Myelinated neurons conduct impulses faster than unmyelinated neurons.
Do epithelial tissue conduct impulses?
No, epithelial tissue does not conduct impulses. Epithelial tissue functions primarily in protection, secretion, absorption, and sensation. Nerve cells, or neurons, are responsible for conducting impulses in the body.
What are Neurons that conduct impulses to the cardiac muscles?
Motor neurons are the neurons that conduct impulses from the central nervous system to cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glandular epithelial tissue. These types of nerves are what make up the Autonomic nervous system, which regulates the bodies involuntary functions.
What type of nuerons conduct nerve impulses along an efferent pathway?
Motor neurons
What is the function of the dendrites and axon?
A very basic explanation would say that axons are the structures of neurons that conduct electrical impulses ("messages") away from the cell body, and that dendrites are the structures of neurons that conduct electrical impulses toward the cell body.
Do action potential transmission is faster in myelinated neurons?
TRUE. Neurons with myelin (or myelinated neurons) conduct impulses much faster than those without myelin.
What conducts impulses toward the cell body?
Dendrites conduct impulses toward the cell body, having synapsed with the axons of other neurons.
What are nerve cells specialized to receive and conduct electrical impulses?
Nerve cells, or neurons, are specialized to receive and transmit electrical impulses throughout the body. They have structures called dendrites that receive signals from other neurons, and an axon that transmits signals to other cells. Neurons have a membrane potential that allows them to generate and transmit electrical impulses known as action potentials.
What neuron conducts impulses away from the CNS to muscles or glands?
Efferent neurons (sometimes called motor neurons) transmit signals from the CNS to the effector cells.
Which elongated cell can conduct impulses?
A neuron is an elongated cell that can conduct impulses. Neurons have specialized structures called axons that transmit electrical signals over long distances within the body.
Neurons that conduct impulses away from the CNS to muscle and glands?
Efferent neuron
The autonomic nervous system consists of neurons that conduct impulses from the central nervous system to what in the body?
smooth muscle
