What is the role of active transport in the transmission of nerve impulses by neurons? (A) Initiates action potential needed for transmission of impulse by pumping calcium ions out of ER. (B) Propagates an action potential by pumping sodium ions across the membrane into the neuron. (C) Propagates an action potential by pumping sodium ions across the membrane out of the neuron. (D) Resting potential needed for transmission of impulse by pumping Na and K ions across the membrane.
Sri K.
Unidirectional transmission of a nerve impulse through nerve fibre is due to the fact that (a) nerve fibre is insulated by a medullary sheath (b) sodium pump starts operating only at the cyton and then continues into the nerve fibre (c) neurotransmitters are released by dendrites and not by axon endings (d) neurotransmitters are released by the axon endings and not by dendrites.
TRUE OR FALSE. When a receptor such as an organ perceives a stimulus, the impulse is sent to the brain by the sensory neurons, transmitting information from one nerve cell to another
