... Extending from the soma are the dendrites, which receive input from surrounding neurons. The axon is the long structure that transmits information along the cell in the form of an electrical signal known as the action potential. Surrounding the axon is myelin, which is provided by the Schwann (for t ...

... can receive messages from many other neurons. Some of these messages “stimulate” or cause firing, other messages “inhibit” or prevent firing. Neurons “decide” to fire or not depending on the kinds of messages they receive. 2. Distribute a copy of “Fire Those Neurons!” to each student. 3. Students in ...

... How does your body/brain know what to react to in order to maintain homeostasis? The nervous system maintains homeostasis by controlling and regulating the other parts of the body. A deviation from a normal set point acts as a stimulus to a receptor, which sends nerve impulses to a regulating c ...
