The Nervous System How your body responds to a stimulus
... Each second, your body fires off about five trillion nerve impulses. • Your emotions, decisions, and physical actions all happen through nerve impulses traveling through neurons in your brain, spinal cord and nerves. • A single neuron can have up to ten thousand dendrites connecting to other neurons ...
