What is the special name given to the rough ER of a neuron?
The rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of a neuron is specifically referred to as the "Nissl substance" or "Nissl bodies." This term is derived from the German neurologist Franz Nissl, who developed a staining technique that highlights the ribosome-rich rough ER, allowing for the visualization of neuronal cell bodies. Nissl bodies are important for synthesizing proteins essential for neuron function and maintenance.
What is the most common central nervous system neuron and how does it function in the brain?
The most common central nervous system neuron is the multipolar neuron. It functions in the brain by receiving and transmitting electrical signals, allowing for communication between different parts of the brain and the rest of the body.
What are the neuroglial cell that anchor blood vessels to nerves?
"ganglia" are a collection of neuron cell bodies outside the Central Nervous System- They communicate to a varity of organs and blood vessels

What neuron parts that does not have missile bodies?
Axon
What is the Neuron function?
The function of a neuron is to transfer messages throughout the brain. These neurons are all attached and interpret everything that happens.
How are neuron and nerve similar in function?
This is just terminology. Neuron = 'nerve cell'
What is the function of the dendrites in the neuron?
The dendrites receive the data or signal from another neuron for the soma.
Collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the PNS?
Ganglia
What are collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the PN?
Ganglia
What contains sensory neuron cell bodies?
The sensory neuron cell bodies are located in clusters called ganglia. These ganglia can be found either outside the spinal cord (dorsal root ganglia for most spinal nerves) or within the sensory organs themselves (such as in the eye or ear).
