What is the correct order that information passes through in a neuron?
The flow of information across nerve cells is called a nerve impulse in which the axons of the cell must depolarize, repolarize and go through a refractory period before reaching the resting potential. At this point, another impulse can occur.
What is it called when the crest of one wave passes through the trough of another?
Destructive interference
What happens at the synapse between two neuron?
At the synapse, the electrical impulse between the two neutrons at synapse set of chain chemical reactions which create a chemical impulse at the synapse.
What is the behavior of a wave that passes through another wave?
a constructive wave
What is the longitude that passes through GreenwichEngland called?
The Prime Meridian.
What is the space through which a nerve impulse passes from one nerve cell to another?
synapse

How can impulse be prevented?
because of the nerves, it passes through the nerves
What is it called when the crest of one wave passes through the trough of another?
Destructive interference
What is the distance from one point on a circle to another that passes through the center?
The distance through the center of a circle is called the diameter.
An electrical impulse moving down an axon is called what?
The nerve that travels down a neuron axon is basically Action Potential.It is an electrochemical change that passes through the cell.
Describe the path a nerve impulse travels through?
When an impulse travels to the brain, it is first received by sensory receptors, then sent through the neurons by an electrical current. When the neuron receives the signal from a sensory receptor or from another neuron, the nucleus processes the impulse and then sends it down the axon. When a neuron is resting, the inside of the cell has a negative charge caused by active transport of NA and K molecules. This is called the resting potential. When the impulse hits the axon, the electricity causes NA pumps to open, allowing a flow of positively charged the molecule into the cell, causing the charges to switch. This is called the action potential. As the impulse passes, the K pumps open, restoring the original charge. When the impulse reached the end of the axon, neurotransmitters chemically pass the impulse to the next neuron. ;
What is caused when light bends as it passes through a material?
Light does not bend as it passes through a material. It bends when it passes from one material to another. This is called refraction. Light can also be dispersed, that is separated into its different colours, if it is refracted enough.
What is the type of smooth muscle in which an impulse passes through a large number of cells which subsequently contract in synchrony?
single unit smooth muscle
Light that passes through an object is called?
Light usually passes through a transparent object. Similarly, light passes through the translucent objects but people cannot see through it.
When air passes out of the lungs it is inspiration?
When air passes through your lungs it is called respiration.
A narrow path through a mountain range is called?
Pass
