Solution

Dear student 1) The impulses can move only in one direction. This is because the nerves are structured to allow unidirectional flow. 2) The electrical impulses are quite short acting. The message is only sent in the presence of the stimulus. Chemical coordination involves communication through hormones. It does not require any specialised tissue like nervous tissue for the signalling to take place. Regard

I. The electrical impulses reach only those cells that are connected by the nervous tissue and not each and every cell of the body.
II. Cells cannot continuously create and transmit electrical impulses, once an electrical impulse is generated and transmitted, the cell will take some time to reset its mechanism and create a new electrical impulse.
