I have not updating this site more often as I should and I apologize for that. For the past few weeks, we have cover quite a bit, and I have been browsing to look for more animation as I have promised.
In last week class and lesson, we learn about the nervous systems. Information have to be pass from the input cells to the output, which can be anything from motor muscle to hormone.

Nevertheless, for the effectors to do its work, there must be a membrane potential so that the signal can be pass through.
In order to have membrane potential, ion concentrations in the cell must be maintain or changes.
I have shown this animation in the class, but here it is again for you to view it again.

Once you have the action potential for the signal, the signal must be propogated or pass down the cell.
You can view both the continuing conduction and saltatory conduction in this animation.
And at this late clip, you can see how the signal is pass at the synaptic cleft.
