Nerve impulses travel up through nerves, into the spinal cord and into one of the different lobes of the brain depending on where the impulse comes from. For example, if the impulse comes from your ear, the impulse would travel to the temporal lobe.

Do nerve impulses travel at 170 mph?

Nerve impulses do not travel at 170 mph; instead, they can vary significantly in speed depending on the type of nerve fiber. In myelinated fibers, impulses can travel at speeds up to about 120 meters per second (approximately 268 mph), while unmyelinated fibers are much slower. Thus, while some nerve impulses can approach high speeds, they do not typically reach 170 mph.


Where does the spinal nerve take nerve impulses?

the spinal nerve sends nerve impulses away from the CNS


Do nerve impulses travel down the internodal pathways from the av node?

No, nerve impulses travel down the internodal pathways towards the AV node, not from it. The internodal pathways conduct the impulse from the SA node to the AV node, assisting in the synchronization of the heart's electrical activity.


Which lasts longer Nerve Impulses or Hormones?

Nerve impulses are faster but don't last as long as hormones. Nerve impulses are quick electrical signals that travel along neurons, allowing for rapid responses, while hormones are chemical messengers that circulate in the blood and can have effects that last longer by regulating various body functions.

How fast nerve impulses travel?

Nerve impulses travel through nerve fibers, and the speed of which they travel depends on the type of nerve fiber. They travel usually around 86 miles per hour.


Which nerve fiber do impulses travel slowly?

Unmyelinated nerve fibers conduct impulses more slowly than myelinated nerve fibers. Myelinated nerve fibers have a fatty substance called myelin sheath that allows for faster transmission of impulses compared to unmyelinated fibers without this sheath.


How nerves travel in our body?

They do not travel - their position is fixed throughout the body. Nerve impulses travel.


How fast do nerves impulses travel?

Nerve impulses travel through nerve fibers via a action potential and the speed at which the impulse travels depends on the type of nerve fibre. This can range from 100m/s in the case of touch to 20-30 m/s when you're thinking.
