What else can I help you with?
What part of the of the neuron receives impulses?
The dendrites of a neuron receive impulses from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body.
Impulses are conducted rapidly if is present?
Myelin sheath. It is a fatty layer that surrounds the axon of a neuron and helps to speed up the transmission of electrical impulses along the neuron.
When impulses from various sources have an additive effect on a neuron the process is called?
When impulses from various sources have an additive effect on a neuron, the process is called summation. This can occur through temporal summation, where multiple impulses from the same source rapidly fire in succession, or spatial summation, where impulses from different sources converge at the same time to reach the neuron's threshold for firing.
Which neuron delivers sensations to the cns?
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
What neuron conducts impulses toward the synapse?
All neurons'impulsestravel to the synapse of the neuron. The synapse is the end of the neuron where theimpulsecantravelto another neuron or the any other receptor cell in the body.
How do impulses move in response to a stimulus?
to the brain, then to the effector through the motor neuron
What part of the neuron carries impulses to the neuron?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
Why is it helpful to have impulses moving only in one direction in a neuron?
Your neurons are adapted in such a way that impulses move only in one direction.
What is the neuron that conducts impulses towards the periphery?
The efferent neuron carries impulses towards the periphery.
What part of the motor neuron carries impulses to the muscle?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
What is the message called that a neuron carries?
nerve impulses
What portion a neuron conducts nerve impulses away from the neuron?
axons
What carries impulses from one neuron to another neuron?
sensory neurons
Why is it helpful to have impulses move only in one direction in a neuron-?
Nerve impulses travel one direction because of the action potential which is created because of Na+ and when K+ returns to normal.
What is the neuron that carries impulses to the nervous cell body is called what?
The neuron that carries impulses towards the cell body is called a dendrite. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body for processing. This input helps the neuron determine whether or not to generate an action potential.
What message does neuron carry?
Electrical impulses.
What part of the neuron recives impulses?
Dendrite
