An extremely high level of social inhibition is known as Social Anxiety Disorder, though is usually falselyperceived to be the result of a lack of confidence or self esteem.
Function of Electrochemical Impulses: In neurons, cell-to-cell communication is the major role of action potential. In other types of cells, activation of intracellular processes is their major function.
1 Transmit nerve impulses: Nerves are able to transmit impulses along the length of the nerve cell in the form of an electrical signal (like power lines). 2  These electrical signals move from one end of the nerve cell to another and can pass from nerve to nerve (power pole to power pole).mpulses that are sent along neurons are called action potentials. An action potential (also known as an impulse) is the electrical current that travels the length of an axon when a neuron has been stimulated. At rest the membrane inside of a neuron has a negative charge. This is called the resting membrane potential.
