Neurons are the cells that carry impulses in the nervous system. They belong to both the central nervous system (the brain and cord) and the peripheral nervous system. For example, these cells can carry information from your touch receptors in the skin of your fingers to the brain where you interpret it. Perhaps what you touch is very hot. In a flash, the brain sends information back to your muscles so that you will remove the fingers as quickly as possible so you will not burn them.

What is the cell body of the nerve cell?
An axon is the long extension of a nerve cell body. The dendrites are the short branches.
What does the nerve cell include?
The nerve cell can be thought of as just the nerve body, which is the main part of the nerve cell. The nerve cell is also known as a neuron. The entire neuron includes an axon, nerve body, dendrites, and axon terminals.
Where is nucleus located in a nerve cell?
In a nerve cell, the nucleus is located in the cell body.
What is the job for the nucleus in a nerve cell?
It depends what part of the cell body you are talking about. The cell body of the nerve cell is the nerve cell. There is no difference between the two. Also, it depends what nerve cell you are talking about, it could be either a relay neurone, a motor neurone or a sensory neurone. The cell body of each is completely different.
Where is the nucleus of the nerve found?
The nerve cell has two main regions: the primary cell body and the axon. The nucleus is located within the primary cell body
What body system is the nerve cell in?
A nerve cell is part of the nervous system, a network of neurons that carry signals throughout the body.
What body system does the immune cell belong to?
It belongs to the immune system.
Difference between a neuron and a nerve?
A bundle of axons is a nerve. A neuron is the cell of the nervous system and is composed of dendrites, axon, and the cell body.

What composed of a cell bodydendritesand axon?
Nerve cell or neuron
What do motor nerve cells do?
Nerve cells are part of the nervous system in your body. The main role of a nerve cell is to pass information through the cells to other cells in your body to perform a function. For example, a nerve cell may transmit an electrical signal from one nerve to another in your body, and send it to the brain.
The longest cell in human body?
The Longest cell in the human body is the nerve cell.
What type of cell is the longest in the human body?
The longest cells are neurons (nerve cells) with a length of 90cm-100cm linking the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to other parts of the body.
Where is nucleus located in a nerve cell?
In a nerve cell, the nucleus is located in the cell body.
