What is a specialization of a nerve cell?
Nerve cells have dendrites at the end. They have a long Cytoplasm to transmit nerve impulses for long distances.
What is the special features of nerve cell?
Nerve cells have dendrites at the end. They have a long Cytoplasm to transmit nerve impulses for long distances.

What are the two ways main ways in which neurons are able to react stimuli?
Nerves receive signals meaning that they can respond to a stimulus. Once a stimulus is received by a nerve cell it converts it to a neural impulse which passes along the nerve. Nerves are able to transmit impulses along the length of the nerve cell in the form of an electrical signal.
Do Axons carries impulses toward the nerve cell body?
No, axons carry impulses away from the nerve cell body.
What nerve processes transport impulses to the cell body?
Axons are the nerve processes that transport impulses to the cell body.
The cellular unit of the nervous system is the neuron What is the major function of this cell type?
Transmit messages (nerve impulses) from one part of the body to another
What is the medical term meaning root-like structures of a nerve that receive impulses and conduct them to the cell body?
The medical term for root-like structures of a nerve that receive impulses and conduct them to the cell body is "dendrites." Dendrites are specialized extensions of nerve cells that branch out to receive signals from other neurons and transmit these signals to the cell body for processing.
What is the branching filaments that conduct nerve impulses towards the cell?
Dendrite is the branching filaments that conduct nerve impulses towards the cell.
What is the branching filaments that that conduct nerve impulses towards the cell?
Dendrite is the branching filaments that conduct nerve impulses towards the cell.
What is the branching filaments that conduct nerve impulses toward the cell?
Dendrite is the branching filaments that conduct nerve impulses towards the cell.
What carries impulses toward the cell body?
Nerve cells carry the impulses around the body to the motor neurons. Nerve impulses are received and transmitted to the cell body by axons.
