The other name for Cell body is?
Fat Cell
Do nerve cells have cell walls?
No it does not have a cell wall because only plant cells have a cell wall but a nerve cell is an animal cell and an animal cell dose not have a cell wall.
Regeneration of a nerve fiber in the pns is possible if?
soma is intact
What portion of a nerve cell which contains the nucleus and most of the metabolic machinery?
Mitochondria produce cellular energy in the the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and are the metabolic 'powerhouses' of the cell.For A & P I --> Neuronal cell body
What cell type is responsible for the transmission of elecrochemical impulses?
The Soma Cell
The part of the nerve cell in which the nucleus is located is the?
Soma or cell body
Where is the hillock of the neuron?
The nerve cell hillock is the beginning of the axon immediately after the soma. This is where the action potential originates.
Name the 3 main parts of a neuron?
The three main parts of a neuron are the dendrites, the axon, and the soma. The dendrites are the nerve endings, the axon is the body, and the soma is the cell body.
What is the part of the nerve cell that contains the nucleus?
All human cells have a nucleus and organelles
Basic unit of structure of the nervous system?
The basic structural unit of the nervous system is a neuron, or nerve cell. Neurons are made up of a soma, or body, an axon, and dendrites.
What are the 3 main parts of neuron or nerve cells?
Cell body (also known as soma)axonmyelin sheath (not present in all neurons)synapse (at the end where neurotransmitters are released to. Not really a part as it is not technically attached to the neuron)dendritesaxon terminal
The other name for Cell body is?
Fat Cell
What does each part of the cell do?
The dendrites receive the stimulus, the soma, or cyton, which contains the nucleus interprets the signal, and the axon and its terminals send the signal to another nerve cell, a muscle, or a gland.
What are the main roles played by axon?
conducts electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body or soma. It is basically what the nerve impulse travels along.
What structure contains the cell body (soma) of a sensory nerve receiving sensory information from the skin?
A typical neuron possesses a cell body called soma, dendrites and axon. The sensory nerve cells receiving information from the skin are pseudounipolar cells having two axon. One axon extends centrally towards the spinal cord and the other axon extends towards the skin. The soma of these nerve cells having neurofilaments of specialized proteins receive sensory information through electric and chemical signals called neurotransmitters.A typical neuron possesses a cell body called soma, dendrites and axon.
