Cell body (soma. ): . contains nucleus & organelles. Dendrite: . receives stimuli. Axon: . sends nerve . impulses. Neurons . do. not . undergo mitosis!. The . Nervous System can transmit impulses as fast as 100 meters per . second!. If . we lined up all the neurons in our body it would be around 600 miles . long!. Chapter 48. YOU MUST KNOW. The anatomy of a neuron. . The role of active transport in establishing the membrane potential of a neuron. . How long-distance and short-distance signaling is done in neurons. . Ms. . Carmelitano. Introduction. Neurons are the building blocks of behavior. The 10 to 100 billion neurons make about 13 trillion connections with each other over the synapses. Essential Question: How do messages cross the synapses?. Section 1 – Functions & Divisions of the Nervous System (pp. 386-387). This is your brain…. The Nervous System.
