Can cancer patients get injections of neurons?
cancer cells can attack any cells in the body, and because neurons are cells, i think they could become cancerus x
Is Halo Reach going to be a region free game?
Yes. Halo Reach will be region free according to 'Domenic' of the Reach team. You will be able to play it on any retail Xbox 360.
What are the 3 basic parts of neurons?
These are the basic parts of the neuron 1. the Dendrites (the nerve endings) 2. the axon (the body) 3. the Soma (the cell body) the axon is covered by the myelin sheath and like any other cell it has the nucleus
What are unipolar?
They are neurons with only one neurite. A neurite refers to any projection from the cell body, such as an axon or a dendrite!
Are neurons created as a fetus functions?
Neurons grow in a fetus, just as any specialized type of tissue does.
How do white blood cells reach injury?
White blood cells are able to reach an injured part of the body by traveling through veins. They naturally help repair any damage the body receives physically if they can.
When you lose brain cells do they grow back?
The body can replace damaged neurons, but not through mitosis of other neurons. There are cells that can differentiate called neuroblasts, however. These cells can become neurons and glial cells, I'm not certain if they can differentiate with characteristics of other nervous system tissues. I read a lot and I have Aspergers , but I don't have any sources. Check my info, tell me if I'm wrong.
Neurons in which dendritic and axonal processes are continuous and the soma lies off to one side are called?
Bipolar neurons have only one axon and one dendrite with the soma between them. There are probably very few, if any, neurons that contain only a single axon and dendrite. However, the concept is useful because some neurons behave as if they only had a single axon and dendrite. These neurons, called bipolar neurons because their cell body sits in between the axon and dendrite (giving the neuron two "poles"), are abundant in the nervous system. One very important type of bipolar neuron occurs in the retina, and is responsible for how we process light at an early level.
Why is the mind so complex?
The mind is composed of neurons (nerve cells) in the brain. There are billions of neurons in a cubic inch of brain matter. These neurons can form connections with any number of other neurons in trillions of different ways. That is complex, so the mind is complex.
What unique structures does neuron help to do its job well?
Neurons are the primary component of cerebral pylons, which are the structures needed to build additional cells and nerve connections. If the body requires additional pylons, it cannot build any more 'units' and must collect more neurons to assemble pylons out of, or it will probably die.
What are chemicals contained in the terminal buttons that enable neurons to communicate?
Chemicals contained in the terminal region of the neuron that enable neurons to communicate are referred to "neurotransmitters". There are many identified and putative chemical transmitters in the mammalian nervous system. These include, but are not limited to dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, acetylcholine, GABA, glutamate, a host of peptides, any many others.
Do neurons hold the same genetic information as somatic cells?
No, there is not any information that neurons hold the same genetic information as somatic cells. Somatic cells are the biological form of an animal, neurons are the forms of elements not organisms.
