The soma, or cell body, is the central part of a neuron that contains the nucleus and organelles necessary for the cell's metabolic functions. It integrates incoming signals from the neuron's dendrites and plays a crucial role in maintaining the neuron's health and functionality. The soma is essential for producing the proteins and neurotransmitters that facilitate communication between neurons.
