How is a reflex nerve impulse different than other nerve impulses?
Skeletal muscles interact with the spinal cord
How are messages from the femoral nerve sent to the brain?
Messages from the femoral nerve are sent to the brain through a series of electrical impulses. These impulses travel along the nerve fibers of the femoral nerve until they reach the spinal cord, where they are then transmitted up to the brain via the spinal cord's sensory pathways. Once in the brain, the messages are interpreted and processed to produce a response or sensation.
Is it true that cells that transmit nerve impulses are known as meninges?
No, that statement is incorrect. Cells that transmit nerve impulses are called neurons. Meninges, on the other hand, are the protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord, providing support and protection for the central nervous system.
What nerve carries impulses away from the brain?
The efferent nerves, also known as motor nerves, carry impulses away from the brain and spinal cord to control muscles and glands in the body.
What form sensory impulses?
Sensory impulses are typically in the form of electrical signals that travel along nerve fibers from sensory receptors to the brain or spinal cord. These impulses carry information about sensations such as touch, temperature, pain, and pressure. The brain then processes these impulses to generate a conscious perception of the sensory input.
What information do nerve impulses require?
Nerve impulses do not carry information, they only carry impulses. It is the brain and spinal cord that interpret that impulse into information.
Is it true that nerve impulses move to the brain faster than they do to the spinal cord?
No, it is not true that nerve impulses move to the brain faster than they do to the spinal cord. In fact, nerve impulses traveling along sensory neurons typically reach the spinal cord first, as the spinal cord serves as the immediate processing center for reflex actions. From the spinal cord, some signals are then relayed to the brain for further processing. The speed of nerve impulses is primarily determined by the type of nerve fibers and their myelination, not the destination of the signal.
Nerve impulses travel to the muscles from the spinal cord through?
afferent neurons
How is a reflex nerve impulse different than other nerve impulses?
Skeletal muscles interact with the spinal cord
How do the functions of the two groups of peripheral groups differ?
the spinal nerves "receives" the nerve impulses from the rest of the body while the cranial nerves "process" these nerve impulses.
What are the neurons that conduct the nerve impulses from the spinal cord and the brainstem to the thalamus called?
afferent nerves of the ascending spinal pathways.
Action handled by spinal cord?
The spinal cord channels nerve impulses from the rest of the body to the brain, and vice versa.
What does your spinal cord have to do with your nervous system?
It is what carries the nerve impulses between your body and the brain.
What order neuron conduct sensory impulses from the brain stem and spinal cord to the thalamus?
from spinal nerve to posterior (dorsal) root
What nerve carries impulses through the spinal cord?
The spinal cord and the abdomen, limbs, and chest. Spinal nerves carry impulses between the spinal cord and the abdomen, limbs, and chest. Cranial nerves carry impulses between the brain and the neck and head.
The neurons of the anterior horn of the spinal cord provide nerve impulses for what actions?
No options given to answer
Motor impulses leave what horn of the spinal cord?
Motor nerve leaves anterior horn.
