Difference between Action potential and Baroreceptor

Action potential vs. Baroreceptor

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise. Baroreceptors (or archaically, pressoreceptors) are sensors located in the blood vessels of all vertebrate animals.

Similarities between Action potential and Baroreceptor

Action potential and Baroreceptor have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Axon, Central nervous system, Depolarization, Heart, Mechanoreceptor.

Axon

An axon (from Greek ἄξων áxōn, axis) or nerve fiber, is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that typically conducts electrical impulses known as action potentials, away from the nerve cell body.

Central nervous system

The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord.

Depolarization

In biology, depolarization is a change within a cell, during which the cell undergoes a shift in electric charge distribution, resulting in less negative charge inside the cell.

Heart

The heart is a muscular organ in most animals, which pumps blood through the blood vessels of the circulatory system.
