The way in which cells in the nervous system communicate is 'electro-chemical'. The electrical part of it relates to the charge gradient (carried by ions) that exists across the cell membrane. There is a direct connection between this charge and the activity of neurons (and glia). Technology like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) takes advantage of this. Chemicals such as neurotransmitters, which are released by neurons and glia, can influence this electrical state - thereby altering cell excitability. So, cells use chemicals to communicate with each other - but require different states of charge in order to do this.

What is the three differences in the behavior of the regulatory functions of the nervous and endocrine systems?
The endocrine systems work with the nervous system but they have a few different functions. The endocrine systems use hormones not nerves, the endocrine system is slower than the nervous system because it flows through the blood not the nerves, and the endocrine system also has gland and the nervous system does not.
What is the name and what type of instant messaging does apple put on Iphones And how does the fee calculated?
The name of the Apple's instant messaging is iMessage. The Apple users can only use this type of instant messaging on iPhone Platform with IOS 6. The fee of iMessage is calculated by the data plan.

The stigmatic nervous system contains nerves that run from the central nervous system to the?
Somatic Nervous System. The somatic nervous system consists of both afferent (sensory) and efferent (motor) nerves [1]. It is also responsible for the reflex arc, which involves the use of interneurons to perform reflexive actions. The somatic nervous system, also called the somatomotor or somatic efferent nervous system, supplies motor impulses to the skeletal muscles. Because these nerves permit conscious control of the skeletal muscles, it is sometimes called the voluntary nervous system.
