Q.
Fill in the blanks with correct words.
The axon transmits_______ away from the cell body to a synapse.
Q.
Unidirectional transmission of a nerve impulse through nerve fibre is due to the fact that
Neurotransmitters are released by dendrites and not by axon endings
Sodium pump starts operating only at the cyton and then continues into the nerve fibre
Neurotransmitters are released by the axon endings and not by dendrites
Nerve fibre is insulated by a medullary sheath
Q. During the propagation of a nerve impulse, the action potential results from the movement of:
