Detailed explanation-1: -Neurons conduct electrical impulses by using the Action Potential. This phenomenon is generated through the flow of positively charged ions across the neuronal membrane.
Detailed explanation-2: -Neurotransmitters pass through the synapse, the gap between two nerve cells, and attach to receptors on the receiving cell. This process repeats from neuron to neuron, as the impulse travels to its destination-a web of communication that allows you to move, think, feel and communicate.
Detailed explanation-3: -Sensory neurons (sometimes referred to as afferent neurons) are nerve cells which carry nerve impulses from sensory receptors towards the central nervous system and brain.
Detailed explanation-4: -The nerve cell, or neuron, is the key player in the activity of the nervous system. It conveys information both electrically and chemically. Within the neuron itself, information is passed along through the movement of an electrical charge (i.e., impulse).
