During the refractory perios or state of hyperpolarization a neuron is capable of firing an action potetntial.

The_________is comprised of the brain and spinal cord.

Which nervous system is responsible for connecting the body to the central nervous system?

Which part of the peripheral nervous system controls voluntary movements within the body?

Sensory neurons carry environmental information via afferent nerves in the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system where __________ travel within the central nervous system then relaying the motor neuron to carry out an action through an efferent nerve in the peripheral nervous system.

A lack of acetycholine could lead to Alzheimer's disease.
