The structure of a neurone• Neurones are very similar
to electrical wires – – they conduct signals very
quickly
– have a layer of insulation to speed up the rate of transmission of that signal
• In neurones, the insulating layer is a fatty substance called a myelin sheath
Myelin sheath

Neurone
The axon endings are the part of the neurone that passes on information to the next neurone in the sequence

Synapses
• Neurones do not actually connect with each other – there are tiny gaps between the end of one and the start of another.
• The gap between two neurones is called a synapse
![Page 6: Title: How do our bodies respond to stimili? 28 th February 2014 Learning question: How do animals detect stimuli? L.O 2.19 – 2.23 Homework: complete summary.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070401/56649f205503460f94c38a03/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Synapse• The diagram opposite dhows
part of the reflex arc. How many synapses can you see?
• Impulses in a neurone always travel from dendrite to axon ending.
• So this means the end of one axon will pass on messages to the start of the next dendrite

Neurotransmitters• Signals cross a synapse using chemicals released
by a neurone.
• The chemical diffuses across the gap makes the next neurone transmit an electrical signal.
1. An electrical impulse travels along an axon.
2. This triggers the nerve-ending of a neuron to release chemical messengers called neurotransmitters.
3. These chemicals diffuse across the synapse (the gap) and bind with receptor molecules on the membrane of the next neuron.
4. The receptor molecules on the second neuron bind only to the specific chemicals released from the first neuron. This stimulates the second neuron to transmit the electrical impulse

3 Jacob has written: ‘An impulse from a neurone travels through a synapse to get to the next neurone.’ Explain why this is not correct.
A:An impulse does not travel across the synapse. Instead it causes the release of neurotransmitter which then causes a new impulse to be generated in another neurone.

20
Reflex actions Coordinated responses
Speed Faster Slower
Automatic? Yes No
Use the brain for processing
No Yes

Yes Yes

6 Why is it important for reflex arcs to have as few synapses as possible?
A: So that impulses travel through them as quickly as possible (synapses between one neurone and the next, slow down the mean speed of impulses).
