What is the portion of the neuron that accepts incoming impulses?

The receptor is the part of the neuron (usually a dendrite) that detects a stimulus.
Dendrites are extensions of the main cellular body of the neuron called the soma; the impulse is passed on to another neuron at the other end, which is called the axon. Neurons transmit impulses to each other via electro-chemical connections to each other that are known as synapses.

Incoming neural impulses are received by the of a neuron?
Dendrites
In a neuron impulses move?
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
The part of the neuron that carries impulses to the neuron cell body is the?
dendrite
What does communication in the nervous system depend on which are electrical impulses that travel from neuron to neuron?
action potentials
Which neuron delivers sensations to the cns?
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
What part of the neuron carries impulses to the neuron?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
Incoming neural impulses are received by the of a neuron?
Dendrites
What portion a neuron conducts nerve impulses away from the neuron?
axons
What part of the motor neuron carries impulses to the muscle?
The axon, an elongated portion of the neuron, carries impulses to the muscles.
In a neuron impulses move?
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
What is the neuron that conducts impulses towards the periphery?
The efferent neuron carries impulses towards the periphery.
What is a motor neuron attached to?
A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.A Motor neuron is a neuron that carries impulses from the spinal cord to muscle cells.
What is the neuron that carries impulses to the nervous cell body is called what?
Fibres which carry impulses towards the cell body of a neuron are called dendrites. The axon is the fibre which carries impulses away from the cell body of a neuron.
What is the message called that a neuron carries?
nerve impulses
What carries impulses from one neuron to another neuron?
sensory neurons
The part of the neuron that carries impulses to the neuron cell body is the?
dendrite
Part of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses?
Synapses. Net flow of charged ions ("impulses") in neuronal cells trigger additional ion flow (ionotropic signaling) or neurotransmitter release (metabotropic signaling) to both neuronal and non-neuronal cell types ("the body") at junctions called synapses.
