The action action potential produced needs to reach the threshold for the AP to be propagated. If it doesn't reach the threshold, there is not enough Na+ to stimulate the positive feedback system which allows the action potential to be self-propagated. Instead, K+ channels will be opened, and it will enter repolarisation phase, and the AP wll not be conducted.
What else can I help you with?
Which travels quicker through the body a nerve impulse or a hormons?
a nerve impulse
The neurotransmitters of a neutron enable a nerve impulse to do what?
Neurotransmitters in a neuron allow a nerve impulse to be transmitted from one neuron to another by crossing the synapse and binding to receptors on the receiving neuron. This triggers an electrical or chemical signal to continue the nerve impulse along the neural pathway.
What happens to a muscle when an electrical impulse from a nerve stops?
When the electrical impulse from a nerve stops, the muscle relaxes and returns to its resting state. This is because the nerve impulse initiates the release of calcium ions in the muscle cells, leading to muscle contraction. When the nerve impulse stops, the calcium ions are reabsorbed, causing the muscle to relax.
What influences the speed of a nerve impulse?
the diameter of an axon
What is the nerve impulse from your foot to your leg called?
The nerve impulse from your foot to your leg is called a sensory nerve signal or proprioceptive feedback. It helps transmit information about sensations such as touch, pressure, and position to the brain.

Is a action potential necessary for a nerve impulse to occur?

Yes, an action potential is needed for a nerve impulse to occur.
What is a nerve impule transmitted by axons?
It is called a nerve impulse.
The neurotransmitters of a neutron enable a nerve impulse to do what?

What nerve receive the impulse?
receptors.
What is the difference between synaptic and nerve impulse transmission?
Synaptic transmission is chemical, while nerve impulse or axonal transmission is electrical.

What nerve carries the impulse to the brain from each eye?
The optic nerve
