Find out the correct statement among the following:-
Nerve impulses and chemicals signals both are equally effective.
Nerve impulses are less effective than chemical signals as they cannot reach all cells as the chemicals signals do.
Chemical signals are less effective than nerve impulses because they have localized effects.

and what is the speed of reply from brain to that part of body?

Unidirectional transmission of a nerve impulse through nerve fibre is due to the fact that:
Neurotransmitters are naturally attracted towards the brain.
Neurotransmitters are released by the axon endings and not by dendrites.
Neurotransmitters are released by dendrites and not by axon endings.
A nerve fibre is insulated by myelin sheath which ensures unidirectional flow.
