The change in potential, that passes on as an electrical signal through the neurons, which starts from the dendrite and terminate at the axon ;which transmits information in the form of an electrical signal via the nervous system is called a nerve impulse.

A) Dendites = the small pointed arms, which receive the impulses from other neurons.B) Axon = The long arm, which transmits nerve signals away from the neuron
