A neuron, neurone, [1] or nerve cell is an excitable cell that fires electric signals called action potentials across a neural network in the nervous system.They are located in the brain and spinal cord and help to receive and conduct impulses.
A neuron (also known as a neurone or nerve cell) is an excitable cell in the nervous system that processes and transmits information by electrochemical signaling. Neurons are the core components of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.
Bumped into this at COM:FPC. Clear, technically precise and encyclopedic SVG diagram of a neuron cell. Articles this image appears in Dendrite, Chemical synapse Creator LadyofHats. Discussion of the diagram: Support as nominator — MER-C 04:51, 13 July 2007 (UTC) Support I have a slight preference for the numbered version though.
A reconstruction of a pyramidal cell. Soma and dendrites are labeled in red, axon arbor in blue. (1) Soma, (2) Basal dendrite, (3) Apical dendrite, (4) Axon, (5) Collateral axon. One of the main structural features of the pyramidal neuron is the conic shaped soma, or cell body, after which the neuron is named.
