Nerves

Nerves are thread-like structures that form a network of pathways that transmit information from the brain to the body and the body to the brain, in the form of electrical impulses.

Where do you find the nucleus in a neuron?

You will find DNA in the nucleus of the cell.

If you want to go a little more in-depth, there is also mitochondrial DNA.

Nerve impulses from what will result in inspiration?

The ventral respiratory group (VGR), a network of neurons that extends in the ventral brain stem from the spinal cord to the pons-medulla junction, appears to be the rhythm-generating and integrative center of respiration.

What are the 3 types of neurons that function to respond to physical stimuli?

The three types of neurons that function to respond to physical stimuli are the same ones that react to over exhaustion and triangles. I hope this helped.

What generate and transmit nerve impulse?

A sensory stimulus can generate a neural impulse, as can repeated or multiple inputs of neural signals from other neurons.

A neural signal is transmitted from one neuron to anotheracross a synapse via chemicals called neurotransmitters, and a neural impulse is transmitted along an axon of a neuron by either an action potential (in an unmyelinated axon) or by saltatory conduction (in a myelinated axon).

Can drinking chamomile tea cause a pins and needles reaction in hands feet and face?

Chamomile tea is a drink that is sometimes used to increase rest and calmness. If you develop a pins and needles feeling in your hands and feet when drinking, it's best to consult your physician as it may be an allergic reaction.

How is voltage maintained in a neuron?

Electrons keep getting pumped, which keep the voltage to be maintained.

What is the effect of cannabis on synapse transmission?

nothing it is perfectly safe

ANSWER

Cannabis is not "perfectly" safe, nor is is certainly dangerous. No one is completely certain of its full effects the chemical function of the brain is not fully elucidated, nor are the complete effects of cannabis on this complex system. What is known is that the active ingredient, THC, effects cannabinoid mediated neurotransmission in the brain on binding to CB1 receptors. Binding to these receptors causes a reduction in the activity of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA in decreasing its release. CB1 is the most widely identified receptor in the adult brain.

When does the baby have nerve endings?

Ten Weeks, this means woman who get abortions, their baby feels everything.

What are the three parts of a neuron-?

The three main parts of a nueron are: the dendrites, the axon, and the cell body.

Parasympathetic nerve is the nerve of tomorrow?

Parasympathetic nerves are called the nerves of tomorrow because they are responsible for bringing the body functions back to the normal state after an emergency. They maintain homeostasis at the time of no stress.

What is the chemical portion of the nerve impulse called?

the most common neurotransmitters include acetylcholine, epinephrine, and serotonin. Different neurotransmitters may have different effects depending on which part of the nervous system it is in. Acetylcholine, for example, is used in neuromuscular junctions in order for muscle contraction to occur.

What is the difference between what cocaine does at a synapse and what heroin does at a synapse?

Cocaine and heroin don't act on synapses.

Heroin acts on the opioid receptors of neurons. Cocain acts primarily on the dopamine receptors. These are different structures on the surface on neuron cells. They work sort of like switches. Chemicals like heroin flip the switch on or off, affecting the behavior of the neuron.

This is a very simplified explanation to this question.

Is the Synapse Group Inc legitimate?

No. If you order online merchandise from any number of companies, they sell the Synapse Group your credit/debit card information and you begin seeing money taken from your account. They claim you have subscribed to magazines, etc. Here's a link: http://kgglaw.com/web_app/main/default.aspx?ID=50&PT=5

What are highly branched cellular processes of a neuron that carry signals towards the cell body of a neuron?

These are called dendrites as they look like the branches of trees.
It sounds like you're describing a synaptic transmission.

What auditory nerve is responsible for?

The auditory nerve is responsible for relaying vibrations from the cochlea, in the inner ear, to the brain as electrical impulses. The auditory centre of the brain then interprets these as sound.
