Where neuron cell bodies located?

The cell body, called the SOMA, is the main part of the neuron. It is the main metabolic center or region of the neuron. The neuron has 3 parts: DENDRITES (inputs), SOMA (cell body), and AXON (output). The axon is the part which FIRES when sufficient inputs reach it at the axon hillock.

What is the part of the neuron that receives impulses is called the?

Neural input happens at the dendrites (dendritic tree) of the neuron, but some neurons, notably the sympathetic, can receive input at the axon hillock (where the axon leaves the soma).


What is the function of the neuron part that picks up signals from other neurons?

The function of the neuron part that picks up signals from other neurons is to receive and integrate incoming signals, allowing the neuron to communicate with other neurons and process information. This part is called the dendrite.


What is the long part of the neuron that extends out from the body cells?

the longest part of a nerve cell is called the Axon.


The part of the neuron that normally receives stimuli is called?

The Synaptic signals from other neurons are received by the neuron's soma and dendrites. Synapse's happens when contact is made by one neuron's axon and is received by another neuron's dendrite and soma. The synaptic signaling procedure is vital to positive neuron function.


What is the center part of a tree?

the center part of the tree is called the core.


Why is a neuron called an interneuron?

A neuron is called a inter-neuron because that specific neuron takes impulse from one neuron to a next neuron. For example your sensory neuron sends a impulse that you had felt a hot object. It goes through the spine to a inter-neuron to a motor neuron (this processes is called a reflex). Then the motor neuron tells your muscles in your hand to move
