Neurons and their processes, which includes an axon, will of course be damaged if a blow to the head is severe enough.
Head injuries can cause seizures due to the disruption or damage to the brain's normal electrical activity. The primary reason for seizures occurring with head injuries is the disturbance in the balance of chemicals and electrical signals in the brain, resulting in abnormal electrical discharges that trigger seizures. Additionally, bleeding or swelling in the brain, as well as scar tissue formation, can also contribute to the development of seizures after a head injury.
The smaller, receiving, head end of a neuron is called the dendrite. This transmogrifies first into the nucleus containing cell body and then into the multi-branched transmission arms of the axon. Axons from the spine to the foot are up to a meter in length.
Neurons are located throughout the body, but the majority are concentrated in the brain and spinal cord, which make up the central nervous system. They also extend out to all parts of the body through the peripheral nervous system, allowing for communication between different body parts.
There is no specific percentage available, but bull riding is considered a high-risk sport for head injuries, including concussions and traumatic brain injuries. Protective gear and safety measures are crucial in reducing the risk of brain damage in bull riders.
Yes, banging your head can cause a concussion, which may result in temporary or permanent damage to brain cells. It is important to seek medical attention if you experience any head injury to prevent further complications.
The peripheral nervous system (PNS), basically anywhere outside the spinal cord and brain. Motor Neurons are found in the central nervous system. In the Ventrall horn of the spinal cord.
Brain damage, can result from trauma to the head following an accident.
Helmets.
Brain damage occurs by almost anything like slipping and falling on your head..
There is a lot of damage that can be done by not supporting a baby's head. Both brain damage and suffocation can occur if the head is not supported.
Getting hit on the head
Listening to the kind of music that requires head banging causes brain damage. ^eff you. apparently head-banging can bruise the front of your brain, but i don't believe it. :D
stress or a damage nerve in the brain.
some type of brain damage to the head
yes it can.

yes but it usually has to be pretty hard yes and each time you hit your head even if it's not hard you loss brain cells causing brain damage
