How are nerve cells adapted?
Long extensions called dendrites that respond to neurotransmitters, long extensions called axons which may be wrapped in myelin sheaths and which secrete neurotransmitters, and the ability to generate a resting and an action potential.
What is the 3 main parts of nerve cells?
The three basic parts of a nerve cell are the dendrites, cell body, and axon. The dendrites branch to reach other cells. The cell body contains the nucleus which controls the cell. The axon is long and provides "reach" for the cell.

What is the function of the cell body in the nervous system?
The cell body (soma) is the factory of the neuron. It produces all the proteins for the dendrites, axons and synaptic terminals and contains specialized organelles such as the mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, secretory granules, ribosomes and polysomes to provide energy and make the parts, as well as a production line to assemble the parts into completed products.
