Nerve cells, also known as neurons, generally do not reproduce or regenerate in the human body. Once they are damaged or lost, they are not easily replaced. This is why injuries to the nervous system can have long-lasting effects.

Can nerve cells divide and regenerate in the human body?

Nerve cells, or neurons, generally do not divide and regenerate in the human body. Once they are damaged or lost, they are not easily replaced. However, there are some regions in the brain where new neurons can be generated through a process called neurogenesis.


Do your brain cells reproduce?

No. Nerve cells do not reproduce.


If the left side of your brain is dead will it regenerate?

No. The brain is made of nerve cells. And the nerve cells in the brain are part of the central nervous system that does not regenerate.


What is the type of adult human cell usually does not reproduce itself by mitosis?

Most adult human cells that do not reproduce themselves by mitosis are nerve cells, or neurons. This is because neurons are terminally differentiated cells and typically do not undergo cell division in adults.


If the brain is damaged can a new nerve cell grow?

No-- Nerve cells are one of the few kinds of cells that never regenerate or regrow.


What is the difference between muscule cell and nerve cells?

muscle cells regenerate, nerve cells don't. That is why your muscle is only sore for a couple of days but youre paralized forever.


Ability lost by some specialized cells?

Some specialized cells may lose their ability to divide and reproduce, known as senescence, as they mature and carry out their specific functions. This loss of cell division capability helps maintain tissue structure and function but also limits the cells' ability to repair or regenerate. Examples include nerve cells and muscle cells.


What are special connection between nerve cells and human cells?

Human cells also include human nerve cell. The connections are from the nerve cell to the other cells by way of extensions called dendrites.


Are human nerve cell found in prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?

Human nerve cells are eukaryotic cells, just like every other human cell.


What are cells that can not reproduce?

I guess you are asking which cell cannot undergo Mitosis? Brain cells usually stop at the first checkpoint of the G1 of the cell cycle and therefore never reproduce. Some adults have found brain cells to reproduce under certain conditions.


The longest cell in human body?

The Longest cell in the human body is the nerve cell.


What do nerve cells bring to the human body?

nerve cells brings oxgygen to the body
