What are similar cells?
The only other cells that are similar to neurons in the body are the muscles cells because they both conduct an action potential, obey the All-or-None Law, and can be polarized and depolarized.
What holds a neuron in place?
A neuron is a nerve cell that is the basic building block of the nervous system. Neurons are similar to other cells in the human body.
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
Which cells has a function most similar to electrial wire?
The neurons would have functions closest to electrical wire.
What cell types are in the nervous tissue?
1. Neurons. 2. Neurological Cells. 3. Schwann cells
In what ways are neurons similar to other cells?
Neurons vs. Other Cells Similarities with other cells:Neurons and other body cells both contain a nucleus that holds genetic information.Neurons and other body cells are surrounded by a membrane that protects the cell.The cell bodies of both cell types contain organelles that support the life of the cell, including mitochondria, Golgi bodies, and cytoplasm.Differences that make neurons unique:Unlike other body cells, neurons stop reproducing shortly after birth. Because of this, some parts of the brain have more neurons at birth than later in life because neurons die but are not replaced. While neurons do not reproduce, research has shown that new connections between neurons form throughout life.Neurons have a membrane that is designed to sends information to other cells. The axon and dendrites are specialized structures designed to transmit and receive information. The connections between cells are known as a synapses. Neurons release chemicals known as neurotransmitters into these synapses to communicate with other neurons.

What ability do neurons have that other cells don't?
Cells other than neurons undergo apoptosis and if neurons die they don't regenerate hencw their number reduces and even their injuries are difficult to treat and it can cause several neurological diseases unlike other cells .
Which of the following is a difference between neurons and cells from other organ systems?
neurons have nissl bodies

Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
In what ways are neurons similar to cell and different?
cells are the building blocks of life, neurons are specific cells that send and receive motor messages that tell us to do simple things like walk, or blink
What kind of cells are in the brain?
Neurons are brain cells
What are the Difference of neurons and neuroglia cells?
Neurons are conducting cells in the nervous system and neuroglia do not conduct, but are helper cells to the neurons.
Which cells has a function most similar to electrial wire?
The neurons would have functions closest to electrical wire.
What cell types are in the nervous tissue?
1. Neurons. 2. Neurological Cells. 3. Schwann cells
What are the cells of the brain?
The brain is composed of two types of cells, neurons and glial cells.
