How does a neuron send an electrical signal?
A neuron sends an electrical signal when ions move across its membrane, creating an action potential that travels down the axon.
What is the brain
Spongy organ that weighs about three pounds.

What happens when flexion happens in the body

You accidentally touch a hot stove. Sensory neurons in your skin detect the heat and send an electrical signal to your spinal cord. Interneurons quickly process the information and activate motor neurons, which send a signal to your arm muscles. Your muscles contract, and you pull your hand away before you even consciously think about it. What is the reason for the fast response?
That fast response is your neurons working together in a reflex pathway.
what does our brain stem
Breathing, heart beat, and your eyes’ reaction to light
How is long term memory formed
Consolidation, which is the process of strengthening our memory over time
Who came third in the womens soccer olympics
Germany
What is the front side of the muscles on the body called
Anterior muscles
How do changes in neurotransmitter levels at synapses affect the speed and strength of signals between neurons, and what might this mean for behavior or coordination?
Too few or too many neurotransmitters can make neuron signals weak or overactive, affecting movement, mood, and coordination.
When we dropped the ruler what was going on with our peripheral and central system
When we dropped the ruler, our peripheral nerves sensed it and moved our hand, while our brain and spinal cord processed the information and coordinated the reaction.
