42.2: The Mechanism of Nerve Impulse Transmission
100. Figure 42.2.2 42.2. 2: The (a) resting membrane potential is a result of different concentrations of Na + and K + ions inside and outside the cell. A nerve impulse causes Na + to enter the cell, resulting in (b) depolarization. At the peak action potential, K + channels open and the cell becomes (c) hyperpolarized.
Overview of neuron structure and function
The axons of peripheral neurons that travel a common route are bundled together to form nerves. Classes of neurons. Based on their roles, the neurons found in the human nervous system can be divided into three classes: sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons. ... If the neuron does end up firing, the nerve impulse, or action potential ...

11.4: Nerve Impulses
Action Potential. An action potential, also called a nerve impulse, is an electrical charge that travels along the membrane of a neuron.It can be generated when a neuron's membrane potential is changed by chemical signals from a nearby cell. In an action potential, the cell membrane potential changes quickly from negative to positive as sodium ions flow into the cell through ion channels ...
The synapse (article)
How do neurons "talk" to one another? The action happens at the synapse, the point of communication between two neurons or between a neuron and a target cell, like a muscle or a gland.At the synapse, the firing of an action potential in one neuron—the presynaptic, or sending, neuron—causes the transmission of a signal to another neuron—the postsynaptic, or receiving, neuron—making the ...
Signal propagation: The movement of signals between neurons
Neurotransmitters are how we communicate between one cell and the next. Synapses between neurons are either excitatory or inhibitory - and that all comes down to the neurotransmitter released. Excitatory neurotransmitters cause the signal to propagate - more action potentials are triggered. Inhibitory signals work to cancel the signal.
How Neurons Conduct Nerve Impulses
3. Resting potential sets up the conditions for impulses to travel. Like all cells, neurons maintain an electrical charge across their membrane. To understand what this means, let's connect this to something you use all the time: an electrical battery. Here are two well known facts about batteries.
11.4: Neuronal Communication
While the presynaptic cell is always a neuron (because only neurons have axons and can form a synapse), the postsynaptic cell can be a neuron or another type of cell such as skeletal, cardiac or smooth muscle cells, or glands. In Figure 11.4.1 11.4. 1, a presynaptic neuron forms synapses with two postsynaptic neurons.
Neuroanatomy, Neuron Action Potential
Neurons are electrically excitable, reacting to input via the production of electrical impulses, propagated as action potentials throughout the cell and its axon. These action potentials are generated and propagated by changes to the cationic gradient (mainly sodium and potassium) across their plasma membranes. These action potentials finally reach the axonal terminal and cause depolarization ...
11.41: Nerve Impulse
Nerve impulses travel just as fast through the network of nerves inside the body. Figure 11.41.1 11.41. 1: The axons of many neurons, like the one shown here, are covered with a fatty layer called myelin sheath. The sheath covers the axon, like the plastic covering on an electrical wire, and allows nerve impulses to travel faster along the axon.
35.2 How Neurons Communicate
A nerve impulse causes Na + to enter the cell, resulting in (b) depolarization. At the peak action potential, ... For an action potential to communicate information to another neuron, it must travel along the axon and reach the axon terminals where it can initiate neurotransmitter release. The speed of conduction of an action potential along an ...
Two Forms of Electrical Transmission Between Neurons
Two different strategies are responsible for electrical communication between neurons. One is the consequence of low resistance intercellular pathways, called "gap junctions", for the spread of electrical currents between the interior of two cells. The second occurs in the absence of cell-to-cell contacts and is a consequence of the ...
13.19: Nerve Impulses
Action Potential. A nerve impulse is a sudden reversal of the electrical charge across the membrane of a resting neuron. The reversal of charge is called an action potential. It begins when the neuron receives a chemical signal from another cell. The signal causes gates in sodium ion channels to open, allowing positive sodium ions to flow back into the cell.
Neurons (Nerve Cells): Structure, Function & Types
The function of a neuron is to transmit nerve impulses along the length of an individual neuron and across the synapse into the next neuron. ... Upper motor neurons - these are neurons that travel between the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neurons are characterized as being multipolar. This means they have one axon and several dendrites ...
Neural pathways and spinal cord tracts: Anatomy
First-order neurons travel from the cerebral cortex or brainstem and synapse in the anterior gray horn of the spinal cord. Very short second-order neurons, called interneurons, transmit the impulse to third-order neurons which are also located in the anterior grey horn at the same spinal cord level.
Neuroanatomy, Neurons
Neurons are electrically excitable cells that transmit signals throughout the body. Neurons employ both electrical and chemical components in the transmission of information. Neurons are connected to other neurons at synapses and connected to effector organs or cells at neuroeffector junctions. A typical multipolar neuron is comprised of soma or cell body, an axon, and dendrites. The axon is ...
Anatomy of a neuron (video)
Anatomy of a neuron. Neurons (or nerve cells) are specialized cells that transmit and receive electrical signals in the body. Neurons are composed of three main parts: dendrites, a cell body, and an axon. Signals are received through the dendrites, travel to the cell body, and continue down the axon until they reach the synapse (the ...
Neuroanatomy, Visual Pathway
The optic nerve directs the afferent limb of the reflex pathway. Light stimulates the retinal ganglionic cells. The impulses travel through the optic nerve (CN II), which projects bilaterally to the pretectal nucleus in the midbrain and then projects to the Edinger-Westphal nucleus. The efferent limb is directed by the oculomotor nerve (CN III).
How does a nerve impulse travel through the body?
At the end of the axon the electrical impulse sets off the release of some chemicals. These chemicals cross the gap or synapse and start a similar electrical impulse in a dendrite of the next neuron. A similar synapse finally allows the delivery of such impulse from neurons to other cells such as muscles or glands.

16.3: Neurons
Nerve impulses skip from node to node, allowing nerve impulses to travel along the axon very rapidly. A Schwann cell (also on an axon) is a type of glial cell. Its function is to produce the myelin sheath that insulates axons in the peripheral nervous system. In the central nervous system, a different type of glial cell, called an ...
