Question 1 of 10
1. Question
NERVE ELECTRICITY: When a nerve sends message, it becomes positively charged. On the other hand, when electricity moves down a wire in the wall of your house, it becomes negatively charged.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 2 of 10
2. Question
NERVE ELECTRICITY: When electricity moves through your lamp cord to the filament of the lightbulb in your bedroom lamp, negatively charged electrons are moving toward the light bulb. Body electricity is sizably different. Rather than moving electrons, nerves move whole atoms into their axons–positively charged sodium ions. These sodium ions are sodium atoms that have lost one electron. Therefore they carry a slight positive charge.

Question 3 of 10
3. Question
NERVE ELECTRICITY: As a nerve message flies down a nerve at the speed of a dragster–over 270 mph–positive calcium ions are rushing inside the nerve in thousandths of a second giving it a positive charge.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 4 of 10
4. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: The trabecular (spongy) bone of a turkey or of a person has complex reinforcing bracing in it like what’s found in the Eiffel tower, and in buildings, train trellises and house trusses. Compact or cortical bone like a femur of a cow, however, looks bland and simple. Right? Nope! It’s unbelievably not!
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 5 of 10
5. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: Every BB-sized amount of compact bone is home to tens of thousands of living osteocyte bone cells. These cells are imprisoned in bone “dungeons” called lagunas and are connected to each other by bone tunnels that are filled with a clear fluid.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 6 of 10
6. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: This fluid moves like a lazy river through a million bone tunnels in every BB-sized amount of bone. WHY? It gives these sometimes 50-year-old imprisoned osteocyte cells continual oxygen and food during their time in their boney prison cells.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 7 of 10
7. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: These tunnels of bone, weirdly enough, also serve as communication tunnels. They connect all the insides of all your bones to the life-saving rice-sized thyroid glands which are on the back side of the neck’s thyroid gland.
These tiny thyroid glands monitor your critical calcium levels. When blood calcium levels get too low or too high, it causes severe tetanus and death.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 8 of 10
8. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: When calcium atom levels in the blood are low, the puny parathyroid glands release billions of messenger proteins into your blood that eventually get into the millions of bone caves and then to the imprisoned osteocytes. When the prisoner osteocytes are signaled, they send messages to local osteoclast cells which begin mowing off bone material and start upping your blood calcium levels.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 9 of 10
9. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: The imprisoned osteocytes also read electrical fields. You have billions of electricity-reading imprisoned bone cells throughout all your bones! The osteocytes read the piezo-electrical fields given off by the 40 nm-spaced collagen proteins in bone as you move. They read the generated electrical fields and the pressure on the liquid in the bone tunnels.
CorrectIncorrect -
Question 10 of 10
10. Question
BONE ELECTRICITY: Then the imprisoned osteocytes send out message molecules to trigger the bone-building osteoclasts to begin laying down thicker bone material in stressed bone areas. For instance, tennis players can get wildly rotating thickened parts of their upper arm humerus bones to handle the stresses of complex tennis serves.
CorrectIncorrect
