- Senses changes both in and outside the body (the sensoryfunction).
- Interprets and explains the changes (the integrativefunction).
- Responds to the interpretation by making muscles interact and glands secrete hormones or other chemicals into the bloodstream (the motor function).

How does the special structure of a neuron relate to its functions?
because neuron is the cells that located in our brain
What are the three classes of neuron?
sensory, interneutrons, motor
Which component of a neuron contains organelles and produces the protein and energy needed to carry out its functions?
cell body
What connects sensory to motor neuron?
Interneurons(also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) are multipolar neurons that connects sensory neurons to motor neurons.
What are functions of synaptic junction?
To "connect" two neurons, (or a neuron and a muscle cell), by providing a space between an axon terminal of one neuron and a dendrite of another neuron (or a muscle cell), so neurotransmitters that are released by an axon terminal can diffuse across that space to reach the dendrite (or muscle cell) and either initiate the possibility of the second neuron to fire or cause a muscle cell to contract.

What part of the neuron functions in cell metabolism?
body
What are 3 functions of the nervous system?
sensory neurons, interneurons, and neuron
What are 3 main functions of the nervous system?
sensory neurons, interneurons, and neuron
What are the three parts of a neuron-?
The three main parts of a nueron are: the dendrites, the axon, and the cell body.
What Three kinds of neutrons that would be involved in a reflex impulse?
They are neurons and not neutrons. You have afferent neuron. Then you have intermediate neuron and then you have the efferent neuron in the reflex arc.

Functions of the Dendrite?
Receptive region of neuron-- bear receptors for neurotransmitters released by other neurons.
Why is there no such thing as a typical neuron?
A typical neuron does not exist because each one functions differently. Even neurons in the same person behave differently compared to each other.
What are the three classes of neuron?
sensory, interneutrons, motor
Other than sweating are there other sympathetic cholinergic neuron functions?
None of all discovered to date
Most metabolic and regulatory functions in a neuron happen where?
happens in the soma (aka the cell body)
