If a syndicated columnist manages to get published on a website with high traffic, he could potentially be read by people all over the world. If someone overseas did a search for a topic that was included in his column, then they could find him purely by accident and become a fan.
Lesia Marie. A nerve impulse is an electrical charge that travels down the cell membrane of a neuron's dendrite and/or axon through the action of the Na-K pump. The inside of a neuron's cell membrane is negatively-charged while the outside is positively-charged. It is called Action potential.
An action potential, which is the nerve impulse, occurs when a threshold is reached. Upon stimulation, the sodium gates open, Na+ flows into the axon, and the action potential swings up from -65mV to +40 mV.. The axon of a neuron conducts nerve impulses away from the cell body. Neurons that conduct messages from a sense organ to the central nervous system are called sensory, or afferent neurons. Those neurons that conduct an impulse from the CNS to a muscle or gland are called. motor, or efferent, neurons.
