Miguel is on the hockey team at school. He is at practice when the coach asks him to cover the goal. How does the nervous system respond to Miguel needing to change direction while skating?

Question

A . For any movement in Miguel to occur, first a message or impulse is sent out of the presynaptic cell down the postsynaptic cell. This is called an action potential, and there is a change in the electric charge of Miguel’s neurons.

B. For any movement in Miguel to occur, first a message or impulse is sent out of the axon terminal and into the synapse. This is called an action potential, and there is a change in the electric charge of Miguel’s neurons.

C. For any movement in Miguel to occur, first a message or impulse is sent out of the synapse and down the dendrite. This is called an action potential, and there is a change in the electric charge of Miguel’s neurons.

D. For any movement in Miguel to occur, first a message or impulse is sent out of the cell body and down the axon. This is called an action potential, and there is a change in the electric charge of Miguel’s neurons.

Would this be C?

Answer 1

It is not C just to let you know I took the quiz. Sorry, I don't know the correct answer.

Answer 2

Well, thanks for helping a little...

Answer 3

I found the answer: For any movement in Miguel to occur, first, a message or impulse is sent out of the cell body and down the axon. This is called an action potential, and there is a change in the electric charge of Miguel’s neurons. I took the checkpoint.
