The origin of the membrane voltage is the same in nerve cells as in muscle cells. In both cell types, the membrane generates an impulse as a consequence of excitation. This impulse propagates in both cell types in the same manner. What follows is a short introduction to the anatomy and physiology of nerve cells.
ARCHIVED: What is Ethernet? Ethernet (the name commonly used for IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD) is the dominant cabling and low level data delivery technology used in local area networks (LANs). Following are some Ethernet features: Ethernet transmits data at up to ten million bits (i.e., 10 megabits) per second (10 Mbps).
The Ethernet switch is a basic component of the computer network. It connects computers, printers and routers on your network. The switch is an intelligent device that learns which devices are plugged into which ports and âswitchesâ network traffic from one host to another based on that knowledge.
