Neurons can be classified by structure, function, or neurotransmitter type.
They receive signals from other neurons.
Dendrites are multiple and receive signals, while axons are single and transmit signals.
It consists of a cell body, dendrites, and an axon.
It insulates axons to increase signal transmission speed.
Spinal ganglia contain sensory neurons, while sympathetic ganglia contain autonomic neurons.
They are rough endoplasmic reticulum in the neuron, involved in protein synthesis.
Neurotransmitters are released to transmit signals between neurons.
They support and protect neurons in the nervous system.
It is the site where action potentials are initiated.
