Answer:

The neuron will not be able to transmit information to other cells.

Explanation:

The neuron can be known as the basic unit of the Nervous System, it is in charge of <em>activating and inhibiting the its electrical activity. </em>

It has 3 parts in charge of different functions regarding communication and integration:

  • Dendrites: the neuron's small extensions, in charge of<em> integrating the received information</em>. They are the neuron's input.
  • Axon: the neuron's <em>main extension</em>, the output which is bigger in size and is in charge of carrying out the action potential to other neurons.
  • Axon terminals: the neuron center in which the <em>metabolic activity</em> takes place.

In this case, Melanie has damaged the axon of the neuron so it will <em>not be able to transmit the information to other cells</em> since it's the neuron's output.

2 fact and supporting details on why this time period called''the Dark ages''
postnew [5]
<span>1 One reason why the Middle Ages are often called the Dark Ages is because, historians don't know as much about this time. In some ways, this period of time has been lost to history. Many important records from this time have not survived.

2 Not</span><span> many people knew how to read or write. It could also be because of the near total loss of classical knowledge that had been gathered by the Greeks and Romans. This was lost to Europeans, but the Muslim world managed to keep hold of it and it was party through them that classic texts and knowledge were finally passed back to Europe.

Hope this helps, God bless!</span>
