Rosemary is added to dog food because it is an antioxidant and acts as a natural food preservative. Rosemary is a very common ingredient in dog food. We found rosemary or rosemary extract is in about 36% of all dog foods. It is much more common in dry foods-rosemary is present in 57% of all dry foods-most likely due to the fact that it is a natural preservative.
Interneurons connect sensory and motor neurons and interpret the impulse. Motor neurons carry impulses from the brain and spinal cord to muscles or glands. 1  Draw and label the structure of a typical nerve cell. 2  Explain how an impulse moves along a neural pathway.
The neuron (nerve cell) is the fundamental unit of the nervous system. The basic purpose of a neuron is to receive incoming information and, based upon that information, send a signal to other neurons, muscles, or glands.Neurons are designed to rapidly send signals across physiologically long distances.They do this using electrical signals called nerve impulses or action potentials.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 (the synapse) and acts to signal the adjacent cell.hey do this using electrical signals called nerve impulses or action potentials.
