What else can I help you with?
What is the function of axis cylinder?
The axis cylinder, also known as the axon, is the part of a neuron that transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons or muscle cells. It is covered by myelin sheath, which helps to speed up the transmission of these impulses.
Does a nerve provided impulses for many muscle fibers or just few?
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.
The chemical that transmits the signal across the neuromuscular junction is called?
Acetylcholine is the chemical that transmits signals across the neuromuscular junction. It binds to receptors on the muscle cell membrane, leading to muscle contraction.
What cells transmit and receive impulses?
nervous tissue.
What is the function of the transverse tubules in muscle activation?
Transverse tubules are extensions of the cell membrane that allow action potentials to quickly penetrate into the interior of muscle cells. This helps in triggering the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, which is essential for muscle contraction.
What muscle transmits impulses along cellular processes?
nervous tissue
What major tissue type transmits waves of excitation?
Nervous tissue is the major tissue type that transmits waves of excitation in the form of electrical impulses throughout the body. These electrical impulses allow for communication between different parts of the body and are essential for functions like muscle movement and sensory perception.
How do eye cells communicate with muscle cells?
The eye cells transmit nerve impulses to the brain, which translates the signal and transmits nerve impulses to the muscles. Information from sensory organs, including the eyes, ears, tongue, and skin, are transmitted by nerve impulses directly to the brain. The brain acting as the control center of the body interprets the nerve impulses. It then sends out different nerve impulses to other cells of the body if a response to the sensory signals is needed.
what muscle transmits the power of the calf muscle to the foot?
Achilles Tendon
What is the function of axis cylinder?
The axis cylinder, also known as the axon, is the part of a neuron that transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons or muscle cells. It is covered by myelin sheath, which helps to speed up the transmission of these impulses.
What processes does not use ATP muscle contraction active transport heat production diffusion of oxygen cytoplasmic?
Diffusion of cytoplasmic oxygen.
Which type of muscle is controlled at will by impulses from the brain?
All muscles are controlled by impulses from the brain. Skeletal muscle is, with few exceptions, the only type of muscle that can be controlled at will.
What is the function of cytoplasmic reticulum in the muscle fiber?
increases calcium influx in the muscle fibre, causing contraction.
A motor neuron transmits signals to?
Muscle fibers
What is muscle conductivity?
Ability to conduct impulses along the muscle membrane.
Does a nerve provided impulses for many muscle fibers or just few?
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.
Are tendons extensions of muscle fibers?
Tendons are not extensions of muscle fibers. Rather, they are separate bands of tough, fibrous tissue that connect muscle to bone and allow them to move in conjunction.
