The brain can respond to touch, smell or taste stimuli in just 0.1 seconds, but sound and vision take longer.
How fast are electrical signals?
Nerve impulses travel at up to 320
mph and take just0.02 seconds to reach the brain.

What are neurones? Neurones are specialized cells that conduct electrical impulses through the body.
nerve fibre
A nerve is a bundle of many nerve fibres enclosed within a protective sheath. Nerve fibres are the long axons of neurones together with any associated tissues.

What do neurones look like?
The axons of most neurones are wrapped in an insulating lipid layer called the myelin sheath. Why is this important?
Thin projections called dendrites extend from the cell body and connect with other neurones, allowing electrical impulses to pass from one to the other.
Neurones are elongated cells consisting of a cell body and long, thin axon.

The cytoplasm is shaped into a long axon to transmit electrical impulses between central nervous system and effector
Fatty sheath acts as an electrical insulator of the axons, and speed up transmission of electrical impulses.
Branched endings make connections with other neurons or effectors.
