Transmission of Nerve Impulses

What type of synapse results in the direct transmission of a positive electrical signal?

• Electrical Synapse

• Ion Synapse

• Chemical Synapse

• Neurotransmitter Synapse

Which type of synapse is much faster than chemical synapses?

• Ion Synapse

• Electrical Synapse

• Neurotransmitter Synapse

• Chemical Synapse

What excites the end of the neurons in chemical synapses?

• Neurotransmitters

• Impulse

• Synapse

• Dendrites

The protective fatty tissue that speeds up the transmission of messages is:

• Myelin Sheaths

• Axon

• Dendrites

• Soma

The extension that transmit electrical impulses from the som to other parts is:

• Myelin Sheaths

• Soma

• Dendrites

• Axon

The extensions that obtain the messages from other cells are:

• Myelin Sheats

• Axon

• Dendrites

• Soma
