What else can I help you with?
Clusters of neurons cell bodies are called?
Clusters of neurons cell bodies are called ganglia in the peripheral nervous system and nuclei in the central nervous system. Ganglia contain the cell bodies of sensory or motor neurons, while nuclei contain cell bodies of interneurons or projection neurons.
What are the names of cell bodies in neurons?
Cell bodies in neurons are called soma or perikaryon. They contain the nucleus and most of the organelles responsible for the cell's metabolic activities.
Does chain ganglion contain soma from sensory neurons?
No, the chain ganglion contains cell bodies (soma) of autonomic motor neurons, not sensory neurons. Sensory neurons have their cell bodies located in the dorsal root ganglion outside the spinal cord.
Where are cell bodies of motor neurons to skeletal muscles located?
Motor neurons to skeletal muscles have cell bodies located in the ventral horn of the spinal cord. These cell bodies send signals through their axons to control muscle movement and are part of the somatic nervous system.
What are some collections of nerve cell bodies found in a small number of locations outside the central nervous system are called?
Ganglia. Ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies found outside the central nervous system, typically located along the peripheral nerves. They can be sensory ganglia (containing cell bodies of sensory neurons) or autonomic ganglia (containing cell bodies of autonomic neurons).

No, the chain ganglion contains cell bodies (soma) of autonomic motor neurons, not sensory neurons. Sensory neurons have their cell bodies located in the dorsal root ganglion outside the spinal cord.
What structure contains cell bodies of neurons?
The neuron cell body is called the soma.
What is receiving and carrying impulses towards the cell bodies?
neurons and synapses
What is gray matters composed of?
cell body of neurons
Where are the cell bodies for the second order neurons located?
Second order neuron cell bodies reside in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord.
Are cell bodies of sensory neurons found in the gray commissure?
Yes, cell bodies are found there. Gray matter is cell bodies; white matter is myelinated axons.
Do lower motor neurons have their cell bodies in the brain and their axons in the ganglia?
No, lower motor neurons have their cell bodies in the spinal cord or brainstem and their axons extend directly to the muscles they innervate. Ganglia are clusters of cell bodies located outside the central nervous system.
What does the dorsal root ganglia consist mainly of?
cell bodies of unipolar neurons
What does the dorsal root ganglia mainly contain?
The dorsal root ganglia mainly contain cell bodies of sensory neurons that transmit sensory information from the body to the central nervous system.
Where are the cell bodies of cerebral neurons housed?
the cerebral neurons are housed in the cerebrums outer region called the CEREBRAL CORTEX
