Chapter 43, Problem 7TYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The difference between the SNS (somatic nervous system) and the ANS (autonomic nervous system).
Introduction:
The SNS is a part of the peripheral nervous system, which is also referred to as the voluntary nervous system. The ANS is also a part of the peripheral nervous system, which is mainly supplied with the smooth muscles, in contrast to the SNS, which majorly consists of the skeletal muscles.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a condition where tumours can grow in the nerves near the skin. The growth of tumours prevents the action potentials from quickly travelling through the neurons.

People with MS display many symptoms, including slurred speech, double vision, and poor muscle coordination. What is the direct effect of MS on nerve impulse transmission? Select one: The movement of impulses along neurons is slower than normal. Dendrites cannot be stimulated by acetylcholine, therefore impulses are not generated in neurons. The threshold level of stimulation for neurons is greater than normal. Axons cannot sectete acetylcholine, therefore impulses are not able to travel across synapses.
