Document Summary

Multiple choice questions: transmits information that a sensory receptor receives. Cells that transmit electrical signals used in communication. When this arrives at an adjacent neuron, there is a change in that cell"s membrane potential. Inside the body, these monitor conditions that are important in homeostasis, such as blood ph and oxygen levels. Changes in membrane potential that serve as electrical signals. During an action potential, an inflow of sodium ions is followed by an outflow of potassium ions: receive sensory information and transmit it to the central nervous system for processing. Sensory neuron: changes in membrane potential that serve as electrical signals. Answers: transmits information that a sensory receptor receives. Sensory neuron: cells that transmit electrical signals used in communication. Their plasma membranes carry a voltage, called a membrane potential, due to differences in the concentrations of ions on the inner and outer surfaces. Transmit streams of data about the external environment.
