  1. Overview of neuron structure and function - Khan Academy

    Most neurons follow the same general structural plan, but the structure of individual neurons varies and is adapted to the specific function a given neuron (or class of neurons) needs to …

  2. Overview of neuron structure (types of neurons) - Khan Academy

    This video introduces the structure and structural types of neurons. Explore the structure of neurons, their types, and functions. Uncover the roles of dendrites, axons, and the soma. …

  3. Anatomie eines Neurons (Video) | Khan Akademy

    Neuronen (oder Nervenzellen) sind spezialisierte Zellen, die elektrische Signale im Körper übertragen und empfangen. Neurone bestehen aus drei Hauptbestandteilen: Dendriten, einen …

  4. Overview of neuron function (video) | Khan Academy

    This video introduces the function and functional types of neurons. Neuron function involves processing and transmitting information. Key components include resting potential, action …

  5. Anatomy of a neuron (video) | Human biology | Khan Academy

    Neurons (or nerve cells) are specialized cells that transmit and receive electrical signals in the body. Neurons are composed of three main parts: dendrites, a cell body, and an axon.

  6. Signal propagation: The movement of signals between neurons

    Your brain is a hotbed of electrochemical activity. About 100 billion neurons are each firing off 5-50 messages (action potentials) per second. This activity allows you to process your …

  7. Electrotonic and action potentials (video) | Khan Academy

    Wait. So how do the dendrites even respond to a signal. and what would be the defintion of a signal if you are dealing with neurons?

  8. Motor neurons (video) | Muscle innervation | Khan Academy

    How do neurons help us move? Learn about how motor neurons send signals to muscle cells and what happens when we damage this precious neurons. By Raja Narayan.

  9. Neurons (practice) | Neurons and Brain | Khan Academy

    Chemicals called neurotransmitters transfer information between two neurons separated by a gap. These chemicals pass the information from axon terminal of the first neuron to the dendritic tip …

  10. Depolarization, hyperpolarization & neuron action potentials …

    In neurons, the cell enters a state of hyperpolarization immediately following the generation of an action potential. While hyperpolarized, the neuron is in a refractory period that lasts roughly 2 …
