-About transmitting the communication action potential neural impulse system

In this video I will explain about the communication action potential,

Having electrical excitability Electrical excitability is the ability to respond to a stimulus and convert
it into an action potential A stimulus is a change in the environment that is strong enough to create
an action potential An action potential is an electrical signal that propagates along the surface of a
neuron's membrane.

NEURON PART

• Dendrites

- conducts impulses to the cell body

• Soma

- Nerve cell body

• Axons/neurites

– cells that are long, thin and carry impulses

electrically away from the cell body of the neuron or

soma.

• Axon hillock

– Part of the soma of cells associated with

axon

– Initiation of action potential (initial segment)

• Myelin

– Substances composed of lipids and

around the axle.

PHASES IN THE ACTION POTENTIAL

Depolarization

• Is the resting membrane potential becomes less negative, 0, then becomes positive.

Repolarization

• The resting membrane potential reaches -70mV

REST MEMBRANE POTENTIAL • Neurons do not transmit signals • In general the resting membrane
potential is within -70mV • A large number of Na (+) ions are outside the cell, the number of K(+)
ions is slightly inside the cell, so the cell inside is more negative.

Action potentials will occur at the nerve axon membrane when depolarization reaches a threshold
value (threshold) → -55 mV Different neurons have varying thresholds, but generally reach -55mV
Action potentials will occur depending on whether a particular stimulus is able to bring the
membrane potential to a threshold value The action potential is an all or none mechanism.

Multipolar Neuron Has several dendrites and one axon, found in the brain and spinal cord

Bipolar Neurons Have 1 main dendrite and one axon, in retina, ear and olfactory

Unipolar Neuron Has several dendrites and 1 axon that fuses to form a continuous process. Unipolar
neurons are also referred to as pseudounipolar • The dendrites of most unipolar neurons function as
sensory receptors (touch, pressure, pain or temperature.
