1.) Name and describe the function of each part of a neuron. What is a neuron? The neurons are the basic elements of our nervous system. You can call them specialized cells in which includes the units of info-development in our brain‚ are very responsible for the perception and the transportation of information. Each part of the neuron has a very important role providing information in the whole body. The most important parts of a neuron are: a cell body‚ dendrites‚ and an axon. • Cell Body‚ also

The nervous system is one of the smallest yet one of the‚ if not the most‚ complex systems in the human body. It can be broken down into two main subdivisions‚ the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The central nervous system contains about 85 billion neurons and includes the spinal cord and brain. It is considered the control center of the body and processes all types of incoming sensory information. The peripheral nervous system is composed of all the other tissue

Emily Muñoz 1/7 period Nervous System The nervous system consist of all the nerves the body has. Controlling not only the actions the body takes but the emotions a human being feels. The spinal cord‚ brain‚ and many nerves revolve around the nervous system. There are three overlapping functions that use millions of sensory receptors‚ that monitor the body. By monitoring the body the functions detect any changes the human body has had.Two components separate the nervous system allowing us to focus

The divisions of the nervous system are the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). The CNS is made of two parts the brain and the spinal cord. The PNS is made up the Somatic nervous system and the automatic system. The somatic nervous contains the peripheral nerve fibers that deliver sensory information to the CNS and motor nerve fibers that go to the skeletal muscle. The central nervous system sends messages from the brain to the rest of the body. (Divisions of The
