Solution

Nerve impulses are a way of coding information, in a way similar to FM radio, allowing information to be transmitted both quickly and accurately. Nerve impulses are transmitted through a change in the concentration of sodium ions on the surface of the nerve cell which happens on receiving a stimulus by receptors and thereby by the dendrites of neurons.
