Collection of cell bodies found outside the cns?
neurons is the incorrect answer. The correct answer is ganglia.
What is the difference between a ganglion and a plexus?
Ganglion- is a collection of nerve cell bodies outside the central nerves system. Plexus- is a network of converging and diverging nerve fibers, blood vessels, or lymphatics.
Nerve cell bodies that are found outside the central nervous system are generally grouped together to form what?
ganglia
What is the ganglion in the CNS?
Anatomy James said:Technically they dont exist. A ganglion is a collection of neuronal cell bodies in the peripheral nervous system. A collection of these cell bodies in the central nervous system is sometimes mistakenly called a ganglion but is actually correctly termed a nucleus.Just C. Urious: The Cerebral Ganglion is the brain of an earthworm
What are some collections of nerve cell bodies found in a small number of locations outside the central nervous system are called?
Ganglia
What is a word for nerve cell bodies outside CNS?
ganglia is a group of cell bodies in the PNS.
What is the difference between a brain and a ganglion?
A ganglion is a description of cluster or collection of nerve cells OUTSIDE the central nervous system (or you can say that it is part of the peripheral nervous system). The brain is part of the central nervous system.
Nervous system what are the two nervous systems?
the central nervous system which consists of the brain and spinal cord. the peripheral nervous system which consists of nerves and ganglia (collection of nerve cell bodies outside the central nervous system). AND -peripheral. -central.
Which animals does not have nervous system?
A ganglia is a collection of nerve cell bodies. The hydra do not have ganglia. Instead, they have special cells for detecting touch.
What are the collection of nerve cell bodies inside the CNS?
These collections are called ganglia. Ganglia often interconnect with other ganglia to form a complex system of ganglia known as a plexus.
Tissue that carries messages throughout our bodies?
the nerve system conducts messages trough the human body
Do hydra have nerve tissue?
The hydra has a nervous system characterized by a nerve net. A nerve net is a collection of separate, but "connected" neurons. Neurons are connected by synapse. Communication between neurons can be in both directions at the synapse within a nerve net. The nerve net is concentrated around the mouth. Unlike higher animals, the hydra does not have any grouping of nerve cell bodies. In other words, there are no ganglia. The hydra does have specialized cells for touch and chemical detection.
