What are teased nerve fibers?
Teased nerve fibers are nerve fibers that have been carefully dissected and separated for study under a microscope. This technique allows researchers to examine the individual components and structures of a nerve fiber in detail.
Can a nerve fiber survive without its cell or its axon?
No, a nerve fiber cannot survive without its cell body or axon. The cell body provides nutrients and support to the axon, while the axon is responsible for transmitting signals. Without either of these components, the nerve fiber would no longer function.
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.
Why a peripheral nerve such as the sciatic nerve can contain nerve fiber from several spinal nerves?
The reason why a peripheral nerve such as the sciatic nerve can contain nerve fiber from several spinal nerves is owing to nerve plexuses. These are networks of nerves all tangled together and found mostly in the limbs.
What do you call the slender nerve fiber?
The slender nerve fiber is called an axon. It is the long, slender projection of a nerve cell that transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands.

Mechanism of nerve conduction?
Nerve conduction involves the transmission of electrical impulses along the length of a nerve fiber. When a nerve is stimulated, sodium ions rush into the nerve cell, causing a change in electrical charge. This creates an action potential that travels down the nerve fiber, activating adjacent areas and allowing the signal to be transmitted. Once the impulse reaches its destination, neurotransmitters are released to stimulate the next nerve cell or muscle fiber.

What cause a nerve impulse move along the nerve fiber?
Electrical diferences.
What causes a nerve impulse move along the nerve fiber?
Electrical diferences.
What is the site where the muscle fiber and nerve fiber meet called?
Well of course they meet at the neuromuscular junction
What process is called a nerve fiber?
Dendrites
What affects the speed of nerve transmission and how is it measured?
The speed of nerve transmission can be affected by factors such as the myelination of the nerve fiber, temperature, and the diameter of the nerve fiber. It is measured using techniques such as nerve conduction studies, where electrodes are placed on the skin to measure the speed of electrical impulses along a nerve.
