Figure 1: Summary of sympathetic (A) and parasympathetic (B) autonomic neural outflows from the central nervous system. Figure drawn by the authors, incorporating material from Gray's Anatomy 31st Edition 1954, and from Cannon and Rosenblueth Physiology of the Autonomic Nervous System, 1937.
A typical neuron consists of a cell body (soma), dendrites, and an axon.The term neurite is used to describe either a dendrite or an axon, particularly in its undifferentiated stage.ynaptic signals from other neurons are received by the soma and dendrites; signals to other neurons are transmitted by the axon. A typical synapse, then, is a contact between the axon of one neuron and a dendrite or soma of another.
neuron structure your brain is made of approximately 100 billion nerve cells called neurons neurons have the amazing ability to gather and transmit electrochemical signals think of them like the gates and wires in a computerour brain is made of approximately 100 billion nerve cells called neurons neurons have the amazing ability to gather and transmit electrochemical signals think of them like the gates and wires in a computer
