The sinoatrial (SA) node, located in the right atrium of the heart, is responsible for generating electrical impulses that spread out and stimulate the atria to contract.
The optic nerve sends electrical signals from the rods and cones in the retina to the brain. These signals are then interpreted by the brain as visual information, allowing us to see.
sensory neurons
Neuron
The cell body of a neuron, also known as the soma, sends electrical impulses down the axon. These impulses, called action potentials, travel along the axon to reach the axon terminals, where they trigger the release of neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters then transmit signals to other neurons, muscles, or glands, facilitating communication within the nervous system.
the spinal nerve sends nerve impulses away from the CNS
The Sinoatrial Node sends a wave of electric impulses through the heart, which causes both atria to contract.
sends electrical impulses to the heart, causing it to beat more regularly
Nerve cells can transmit electrical impulses throughout the body.
The optic nerve sends electrical signals from the rods and cones in the retina to the brain. These signals are then interpreted by the brain as visual information, allowing us to see.
the brain sends electrical shocks through our nervous system that tells our body how to move, and when to do it.
It simulates the node, which then sends impulses to the AV node, which disperses these impulses through the cardiac muscle to cause a cardiac cycle (rhythmic beating and relaxing of atria and ventricles)
Nervous tissue is composed of neurons that use electrical signals to transfer impulses throughout the body.
Neurons send electric impulses to your cells via the dendrites. The Axons carry the electrical impulses away from the cell. This process sends out signals to your brain for all of your body processes such as muscle movement.
