What is cell body or cyton?
The cell body, also known as the cyton or soma, is the central part of a neuron that contains the nucleus and organelles essential for cellular function. It integrates incoming signals from dendrites and generates outgoing signals to the axon. The cell body plays a crucial role in maintaining the neuron's health and overall functionality. In addition to processing information, it supports various metabolic activities necessary for the neuron's survival.
What is the function of the cyton?
The outer part of where the nucleus is located
What is the afferent process called?
Afferent Process is the process by which the dendrites carry impulses toward the cyton.
The other name for Cell body is?
Fat Cell
What part of the neuron contains the cell nucleus provides nourshiments and decides whether or not to fire?
The cell body, or soma, of the neuron contains the cell nucleus which is responsible for regulating the cell's activities. It also integrates incoming signals and decides whether or not to generate an action potential, the electrical signal that travels down the neuron.
What is the Neuron function?
The function of a neuron is to transfer messages throughout the brain. These neurons are all attached and interpret everything that happens.
How are neuron and nerve similar in function?
This is just terminology. Neuron = 'nerve cell'
What is the function of the dendrites in the neuron?
The dendrites receive the data or signal from another neuron for the soma.
Where is the soma located within a neuron?
The soma, also known as the cell body, is located in the center of a neuron. It contains the nucleus and other organelles essential for the neuron's function.
What is the function of a relay neron?
transmission of nerve impulses from the sensory neuron to the motor neuron,located in the central nervous system.
What is the main part of the of a neuron?
It depends on what you mean by 'main'. The AXON is the part which CONVEYS the neural impulse, which could be thought of as the main FUNCTION of the neuron. But the DENDRITES are the parts which assess whether the neuron has been stimulated enough to fire the axon, which is another fundamental function of some neurons. And the BODY (soma) of the neuron is very much a 'main' part of the neuron, because without it the neuron would die.
What is the function of end brush in a neuron?
