How do impulses travel across one neuron to another?
|
|
By fusing neurotransmitters
|
|
|
Through a synapse
|
|
|
Through cell bodies
|
|
|
By touching dendrites
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: –When the nerve impulse passes through the first axon and reaches the dendrites at the end of the axon, chemical messengers called neurotransmitters are released.-Neurotransmitters travel through the synapse between the axon and the dendrite of the next neuron and bind to the dendrite 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: -Impulses cross the synapse by means of chemical messenger called neurotransmitters.
