Which of the sensory functions involves neurons in the posterior root ganglia?
Somatic sensory functions involve neurons in the posterior root ganglia. These neurons are responsible for transmitting information such as touch, pressure, pain, and temperature from the body to the central nervous system.
What are neurons with two processes classified as?
Neurons with two processes are classified as bipolar neurons. These neurons have one dendrite and one axon extending from their cell body. Bipolar neurons are commonly found in specialized sensory pathways like the visual and olfactory systems.
The two main ways in which neurons are able to react to stimuli are?
Neurons can react to stimuli through electrical signaling, where they generate action potentials to transmit information along their length. They can also respond to chemical signals by releasing neurotransmitters at synapses to communicate with other neurons or target cells.
Does sensory neurons for touch also carries pain impulses?
Yes, sensory neurons for touch can also carry pain impulses when there is tissue damage or injury. These neurons are capable of responding to various stimuli, including pain signals, and transmit this information to the brain for processing.
What is non-nociceptors?
Sensory neurons that respond to light touch and light temperature but not pain.
Do neurons touch each other?
Not exactly; as an impulse moves from one neuron to another it crosses a small space between the neurons called a synapse. The neurons as said to 'not touch' because the cell MEMBRANES of the two neurons do NOT touch, nor merge, nor consequently is there any sharing of cytoplasm between the two neurons. The two neurons ARE, however, HELD TOGETHER at that synapse by small molecules called SYNAPTIC ADHESION MOLECULES, which protrude FROM each neuron into the synaptic cleft or gap and then stick to one another. In this sense, PARTS of neurons do 'touch' PARTS of other neurons, in a MECHANICAL or structural manner, but NOT in an electrical or signal sense. The neural SIGNAL passes through the synaptic cleft or gap via neurotransmitter chemicals which are released by one neuron, diffuse quickly through the gap, and then stimulate a signal in the receiving neuron.
What happens if two eyeballs touch?
They can't touch. There is bone formation between them.
What happens when two electric eels touch?
bam
Does the nerve belong to the peripheral nervous system?
Yes it is. Reflex arcs include at least two neurons. The sensory neurons taking information into the cord and motor neurons taking information out. This happens, for example, when you touch a hot object and your arm jerks away. Also there can be an addition neuron that is somewhat slower that "reports" the incident to the brain. It is called an interneuron. It is located between the first two.
Which of the sensory functions involves neurons in the posterior root ganglia?
Somatic sensory functions involve neurons in the posterior root ganglia. These neurons are responsible for transmitting information such as touch, pressure, pain, and temperature from the body to the central nervous system.
What happens when two neurons meet?
these two neutrons are both nuetrally charged there will be no reaction. the Purpose of a neutron is too separate the protons from each other
What are neurons with two processes classified as?

What is the point called where two neurons meet?
The space between two neurons is a synapse.
Do neurons in your brain actually touch each other when receiving messages?
no. they do not.
Is the point at which two neurons meet?
Neurons meet at the synapse.
What is junction between two neurons?
The junction between two neurons is called a synapse. At the synapse, the electrical signal in the first neuron (presynaptic neuron) is converted into a chemical signal in the form of neurotransmitters, which then travel across the synapse and are received by the second neuron (postsynaptic neuron) to continue the signal transmission.
What happens when you touch something that's radioactive?
You grow an extra limb or two.
