The wonderful world of
Nerve Impulses
Doin’ stuff.

Neurons
• There are a poo-load
of neurons in your
brain.
• Each neuron has an
electrical charge of
about -70 millivolts.
• They’re kind of like
batteries, I guess.
Neurons Cont.
• If the electrical charge
gets to aboot -50
Millivolts, the neuron
will reach its
Threshold/ trigger
point for firing.
• Then, an Action
Potential/nerve
impulse sweeps down
the axon real fast-like.
