While the four system approach to negligence is helpful in identifying whether or not an injury warrants legal action, it does fail to distinguish between two distinctly important concepts in the cause/effect relationship of negligence: factual causation vs. proximate cause. Factual and Proximate Cause
Types of Neurons (Nerve Cells). The human body is made up of trillions of cells. Cells of the nervous system, called nerve cells or neurons, are specialized to carry messages through an electrochemical process. The human brain has approximately 100 billion neurons.To learn how neurons carry messages, read about the action potential.owever, neurons differ from other cells in the body because: 1  Neurons have specialize cell parts called dendrites and axons. 2  Neurons communicate with each other through an electrochemical process. 3  Neurons contain some specialized structures (for example, synapses) and chemicals (for example, neurotransmitters).
All living cells have the ability to react to stimuli. Nervous tissue is specialized to react to stimuli and to conduct impulses to various organs in the body which bring about a response to the stimulus. Nerve tissue is found in the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves which is branch throughout the body. Nerve tissue is all made up of specialized nerve cells called neurons.
