What is the threshold value of the action potential?

The body is in a constant state of readiness, ready to respond to changes inside and outside by creating certain feelings - such as burning when it comes into contact with hot objects - and the ability to close or relax to cause the body to move. It is possible to constant wave of electrical pulses that pass through the body to communicate with other areas of the body, otherwise known as action potential. The threshold value of the action potential is a point in which the neuron or nerve cell reacts by burning the signal into the appropriate part of the body.

The action potential is the electrical voltage that constantly surrounds the cells of the body, similar to the high voltage wires found on the poles of the phones. Without this stream of power, the brain would not be able to communicate with the spinal cinema, which in turn transmits messages to the rest of the body. When the message is handed over, the action of the Potentiprah value A is activated, allowing neurons to "speak" to each other to initiate the correct answer.

Action potential and threshold value of the action potential are basically a change in neuron or electric field polarization, which results in nerve cells remain calm or firing to supply pulses throughout the body. The neuron consists of a nerve cell surrounded by a cell membrane with specialized projections or tail features called "dendrites" and "axons". Dendrites bring information while the axons send communication. During the period of inactivity, there are positive ions or electrically charged atoms or groups of atoms just outside the axon membrane. After activating the nerve cell, these positive ions leak by the axon membrane, resulting in a condition called depolarization. Once this change has reached a certain level, the threshold value of the IS Action potential has encountered and causes the neuron or nerve cell group to be fired.

As these changes occur and is met byHot value of the action potential, neurons can then mediate messages back and forth between the brain, spinal cord and the body. Like a telephone in which a dialing tone is present until the telephone number is dialed and the ability to connect to another line is activated and achieves the threshold value of the action potential of the nerve cell leads to the body responding to changing circumstances. These changes can be inside the body, such as the response to the process of infection or outside the body, such as shooting muscles to prevent or remove part of the body from a harmful stimulus, or causes the body or part of the body.
