What is the part of the neuron that receives impulses is called the?

Neural input happens at the dendrites (dendritic tree) of the neuron, but some neurons, notably the sympathetic, can receive input at the axon hillock (where the axon leaves the soma).


Are also called neural impulses?

Action potential is a neural impulse.


What is the name of a neuron that transmits neural impulse from the sensory neuron to the motor neuron?

A relay neurone passes impulses from a sensory neurone to a motor neurone.


What part of the neuron carries impulses to the neuron?

The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.


What are the Fibers that carry impulses toward the neuron cell body are called?

The fibers that carry impulses toward the neuron cell body are called dendrites. Dendrites receive incoming signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body for processing.


Which part of the neuron acts as a receiver for nerve impulses?

potassuimaxon terminals transmit info from their neuron to another, while dendrites receive info from other neurons.


Which structure if the neuron transmits an impulse through the myelin sheath?

Neural impulses (action potentials) are transmitted through axons which are covered in a myelin sheath for insulation.


What part of a neuron that relays a neural information?

The synapse. See my answer for What_type_of_signal_is_taking_place_during_neuron_to_neuron_communication


What is the neuron that conducts impulses towards the periphery?

The efferent neuron carries impulses towards the periphery.


How are neural impulses generated?

Neural impulses are generated when a neuron receives signals from other neurons or sensory receptors, causing a change in its membrane potential. This change in membrane potential triggers an action potential, a rapid electrical signal that travels down the axon of the neuron. This action potential then triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the synapse, allowing the signal to be passed on to other neurons.


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
