Nervous System
... Nerve impulse – A STIMULUS creates an IMPULSE. The impulse travels into the neuron on the dendrite(s) and out on the axon. At the end of the axon, a NEUROTRANSMITTER is released that carries the impulse across the SYNAPSE, to the next dendrite. Divisions of the Nervous System 1. CENTRAL NERVOUS SYST ...
