- Senses changes both in and outside the body (the sensoryfunction).
- Interprets and explains the changes (the integrativefunction).
- Responds to the interpretation by making muscles interact and glands secrete hormones or other chemicals into the bloodstream (the motor function).

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.
How does the special structure of a neuron relate to its functions?
because neuron is the cells that located in our brain
What are 3 functions of the nervous system?
sensory neurons, interneurons, and neuron
What is the control center for the neuron?
The nucleus is the control center of the neuron, where genetic information is stored and regulates cellular functions. It plays a vital role in maintaining the neuron's structure and function.
What are 3 main functions of the nervous system?
sensory neurons, interneurons, and neuron
Functions of the Dendrite?
Receptive region of neuron-- bear receptors for neurotransmitters released by other neurons.
Why is there no such thing as a typical neuron?
A typical neuron does not exist because each one functions differently. Even neurons in the same person behave differently compared to each other.
Most metabolic and regulatory functions in a neuron happen where?
happens in the soma (aka the cell body)
Other than sweating are there other sympathetic cholinergic neuron functions?
None of all discovered to date
Which component of a neuron contains organelles and produces the protein and energy needed to carry out its functions?
cell body
What is the most common central nervous system neuron and how does it function in the brain?
The most common central nervous system neuron is the multipolar neuron. It functions in the brain by receiving and transmitting electrical signals, allowing for communication between different parts of the brain and the rest of the body.
What does the nucleolus in a neuron do?
The nucleolus in a neuron is responsible for producing ribosomes, which are essential for protein synthesis. It plays a crucial role in coordinating the production of proteins needed for the neuron's functions and maintenance.
