The Nerve Cell is also called a neuron, its shape and function is it has alot of surface area and is very thin so the diffusion of wastes, water, urea, and other wastes in and out of the blood can happen more easily
*Does your homework for you* 1) Most neurones are myelinated, which means they contain a myelinated sheath, which, with the nodes of ranvier (little breaks in between the 'sheath'), allow impulses to move much faster. 2) Neurones also have dendrons (little fibres around the cell body) which allow impulses to be quickly passed to the nerve cell.
Nerve cell shapes vary according to the number, branching, and disposition of their projections or dendrites, collectively known as arborization. This determines their capacity for interacting with their environment and with other nerve cells or neurons, hence their computational ability and roles.

To communicate with other cells
it does
yes, that is their main function.
The function of a nerve cell is to carry messages around someones body. To adapt to their job, they're very long and are branched at each end. Nerve cells also receive, carry and pass electrical impulses through someones body.
Nerve cells can send and receive messages. Thus they can control movements and they sensory function. Some may be assigned to one or another.
Carry nerve impulses from receptors toward the central nervous system.
what is the function of the median nerve
It helps the cell connect with other nerve cells It helps the cell connect with other nerve cells
yes, that is their main function.
You have a nerve that carry the impulses from inner ear to brain. It is sensory nerve. It is the 8th nerve. It is called as vestibulocochlear nerve.

That should be the shutter.

False - cells can differ in structure in order to perform a specific function. For example, neurons (nerve cells) are electrically excitable. These have an axon (long section that conducts impulses, and ends which branch out - called dendrite. This is an example of a cell structure unique to a certain function.
Allows for sensing, response ,and control
While reading " Structure and Function of the Human Body" I believe the correct answer is the phrenic nerve. Hope this helps. the nerve that stimulates is the phrenic nerve but it arises from the cervical plexus
Mixed nerve is a nerve that carry all the motor function, sensory function and the autonomic function in a single fiber. Spinal nerve is the example of the mixed nerve. Some of the Cranial nerve on the other hand is not the mixed nerve as it only has one property which is either sensory or motor function. http://www.answers.com/main/ntquery?s=spinal+nerve&gwp=13
