Abstract

Nowadays, the physical analogy in biology has become a desirable research domain for academics. Here, we discussed many exciting features regarding the biological system that could help us to understand the underlying mechanism inside it. This manuscript focuses on the soliton/Bloch wave concept along with the periodic active protein polarized dendrite. The velocity of the existent soliton wave is identified by considering the transmission line model of protein polarized dendrite as a dielectric waveguide. This paper aims to understand and explore the mechanisms of biological rhythms and the role of neural oscillations and synchrony in information processing.
