A (proto)typical neuron contains three parts: a cell body, an axon, and a tree of dendrites. The cell body is also called the soma, which comes from the Latin for "body". Among many important tasks, the cell body houses the nucleus and most of the other cytoplasmic organelles. For this reason, yet another name for the cell body is the perikaryon, which comes from the Greek for "around the nut", where "nut" refers to the nucleus; thus the cell body is the thing that surrounds the nucleus.
The nucleus is present in the cyton, or main body of the neuron.
Soma or the cell body
What else can I help you with?
Do axon contain a nucleus?
No, axons do not contain a nucleus. They are long, slender projections of a nerve cell that transmit electrical impulses away from the cell body towards other neurons or target cells. The cell body of the neuron contains the nucleus which is responsible for controlling the functions of the cell.
What are the main part of the neuron?
Axon, nucleus, and dendrite
What part of a neuron houses the nucleus?
The cell body houses the nucleus.Cell body
What are the three main part of a neuron?
Axon, nucleus, and dendrite
In what part of the neuron in the nucleus found?
In the nerve cell body?
The nucleus is found in what specific part of the neuron?
The nucleus is found in the cell body or soma of a neuron. It contains the genetic material of the neuron and is responsible for regulating cellular activities.
What part of neuron houses the nucleus?
The cell body (soma) of a neuron houses the nucleus, which contains the genetic material of the cell necessary for its functioning.
What part of the neuron carry the image of the object from your eyes to the brain?
nucleus
What part of a neuron is directly involved with protein synthesis?
The cell body or soma of a neuron contains the machinery for protein synthesis, such as ribosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum. This is where the production of proteins required for the functioning of the neuron takes place.
What part of the neuron functions in cell metabolism?
The cell body, also known as the soma, is the part of the neuron that functions in cell metabolism. It contains the nucleus and other organelles responsible for maintaining the neuron's metabolic functions.
Does plant root hair cell have a large single nucleus or a lobe nucleus or is this a neuron or white blood cell?
yes. the nucleus is part of the plant root
What part of a neuron which contains the nucleus the largest amount of mass in the cell and is where metabolism takes place?
