    They receive information and send signals to other neurons, muscles, or glands by using electrical signals called nerve impulses. When a nerve impulse reaches the end of a neuron, it triggers the release of a chemical, or neurotransmitter. The neurotransmitter travels rapidly across the short gap between cells (synapse) and acts to signal the adjacent cell. First, the neuron

    synapses, plexuses and nerves. (8 points) Movement of the deltoid begins in the cerebrum of the brain, but more specifically: in the frontal lobe, the premotor cortex is relaying instructions to the primary motor cortex. The primary motor cortex contains the upper motor neurons whose axons will travel down the pyramids of the medulla oblongata and synapse on lower motor neurons in the anterior gray horns of spinal cord segments C5-C6. From there, the ventral rami of spinal nerves C5-C6 form the superior

When botulinum toxin is released into the body, it blocks the release of acetylcholine , a neurotransmitter that cuts off the signal between nerves and muscles. When one’s nerves stop transmitting signals to the muscles, one cannot feel pain as strongly, thus reducing pain and one muscles relax. The Structure of BT? Botulinum toxin A and botulinum toxin B are the only serologically differentiated botulinum
