neurons (nerve cells) divide by mitosis just like most other cells but in humans neurons in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) stop dividing after fetal development. neurons (nerve cells) divide by mitosis just like most other cells but in humans neurons in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) stop dividing after fetal development.
Yes. In the CNS, other cells specifically interfere with neuronal cell division. In the PNS, it happens all the time. NS= nervous system; C= central; P= Peripheral
No, you're thinking of Neuroglia
divide
Well, the human body contains a lot of neurons. Neurons also send signal to other neurons. so i don't think that neurons divide, but what i do know is that our neurons in the brain starts to develop during Embryonic development. i hope this help you with your question.
There are many cells that loose their capability to divide after certain period of time ( a phenomenon known as replicative senescence in molecular biology). These cells are differentiated and are accustomed to the functions to which they are destined. Most of the cells in the animals are not able to divide, the best examples being neurons and cardiac cells.
I believe the answer you are looking for is neurons. These cells do not undergo mitosis to my knowledge.
The two main ways in which neurons are able to react to stimuli are conduction impulses and communicating with each other. These stimuli can be touch, sound, light, taste, and smell.

yes longevity is a trait of neurons along with a high mebatolic rate and the lack of ability to divide (amitotic)

The cells that are able to pass messages back and fourth are called neurons. These neurons are found in the brain.
Skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle and mature neurons.

Neurons aren't able to communicate with each other.
