What else can I help you with?
How are neuron and nerve similar in function?
This is just terminology. Neuron = 'nerve cell'
A neuron's cell body is termed what in the cns?
The cell body of a neuron is called the soma
What is the function of the nucleus in a neuron?
The nucleus in a neuron contains the cell's genetic material and controls the cell's activities by regulating gene expression. It is responsible for producing the proteins necessary for the neuron's structure and function.
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.
Dendrites function in the motor neuron?
To carry the nerve impulse from the CNS to the cell body
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 is a collection of neuron cell bodies with a common function?
They are called nucleus. For instance, nucleus of cranial nerves.
What is the structure and function unit of the nervous system?
The structural and functional unit of the nervous system is the neuron cell.
What is the function of the axon in neurone?
to send electrical impulses away from the cell body, onto the next neuron.
What transports subtances within the cell?
Neurofibrils, the cytoskeletal elements of the neuron, have a support and intracellular transport function.
What are the parts and function of a dendrites?
Dendrites are the branched projections of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons. They contain receptors that detect neurotransmitters released by neighboring neurons. The main function of dendrites is to integrate and transmit these signals to the cell body of the neuron.
What kind of animal cell is called a neuron?
A neuron is a nerve cell.
