Question

Define neuron. Name the parts of neuron where: 1. information is acquired 2.Impulse must be converted into chemical signal for onward transmission

⇒Neurons are bundles of nerve cells which are responsible for the transmission and transportation of information inform of the electric impulses throughout the body.

⇒The information in the neurons is acquired in the Nodes of Ranvier and are transmitted from one neuron to another through the Synapses and the Myelin sheath are responsible for the insulation of the neurons and hence preventing them to directly touch each other.

⇒The chemicals that enable the transmission of information through the neurons are called the neurotransmitters.

There are those that Inhibit the transmission and those that allows

Namely

• Exitatory

• Inhibitory
