What are extensions of a neuron that receive signals?
Dendrites are the extensions of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons. They are responsible for transmitting electrical impulses towards the cell body of the neuron.
What are the short fibers that extend from the neuron called?
The short fibers that extend from a neuron are called dendrites. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body of the neuron.
What is the part of the neuron that carries messages?
Dendrites carry messages to a cell body of a neuron.
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.
What is the input structure of the neuron?
Dendrites.
What is the function of the dendrites in the neuron?
The dendrites receive the data or signal from another neuron for the soma.
Axons and dendrites is another word for?
Axons are the output element of a neuron, and dendrites are the input elements of a neuron.
Does a synapse separates the axion end of one neuron to the dendrite end?
Yes, a synapse is the space (a VERY SMALL one!) between the axon of one neuron and the dendrites of the next neuron.
What are extensions of a neuron that receive signals?
Dendrites are the extensions of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons. They are responsible for transmitting electrical impulses towards the cell body of the neuron.
What is the path of an electrical impulse as it moves through a neuron?
The electrical impulse travels into the dendrites, the "input" of the neuron, and into the soma or "body" where the signal gets processed. From there, the processed signal travels down the axon or "output" and into the dendrites of another neuron.
What are the short fibers that extend from the neuron called?
The short fibers that extend from a neuron are called dendrites. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body of the neuron.
What is the space where the terminal branches of an axon are close to but not touching the ends of the dendrites of another neuron?
The space where the terminal branches of an axon are close to but not touching the ends of the dendrites of another neuron is called the synaptic cleft. Neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal into the synaptic cleft, where they then bind to receptors on the dendrites of the receiving neuron to transmit the nerve signal.
What type of neuron has many dendrites?
multipolar neuron
What is the part of the neuron that carries messages?
Dendrites carry messages to a cell body of a neuron.
What is synap?
A "synape" is a misspelled synapse.
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.
Axons and Dendrites are part of what kind of cell?
Neurons, of the nervous system. The dendrites receive impulses, and the axons send them to another neuron or an effector cell.
