Long extensions called dendrites that respond to neurotransmitters, long extensions called axons which may be wrapped in myelin sheaths and which secrete neurotransmitters, and the ability to generate a resting and an action potential.

∙ 14y agoA nerve cell is really long and is the longest cell in our body. As it's so long it can stretch between different parts of our body. It is an elongated cell that transmits information between different parts of our body. Each nerve cell has a cell body, containing the nucleus, from which trail processes called dendrites, responsible for receiving incoming signals. The brain controls many nerve cells.

True. A+
What are the nerve cells that react to gases?
Olfactory nerve cells
What are blood cells and nerve cells called?
red blood cells and a nerve cell.
Are the cells that transmit sensory message called nerve cells or muscle cells?
Nerve Cells. 100% sure.
Which cell is adapted for transmitting message?
Nerve cell
How are nerve cells adapted to their functions?
By the axons and the dendrites that help the transmition of electric signals all around the nerve system.
How is the nerve cells shape adapted to carry messages around the body?
NO IDEA! i think its cus its long or something : (
How is the peripheral nerve adapted to its role?
The peripheral nerve is the nerve that controls the limbs of the body. The peripheral nerve has adapted to it's role through myelination, where the nerves are tightly compressed and have connections to the spinal cord to control the limbs.
What is a connector nerve?
Connector nerve cells connect the sensory nerve cells with motor nerve cells and allow for decision making.
What is the difference between nerve cells and nerve?
a nerve tends to refer to a group of nerve cells.
The association nerve cells relay information from sensory nerve cells to motor nerve cells?
True. A+
What type of nerve is the optic nerve?
ganglion cells
What are the nerve cells that react to gases?
Olfactory nerve cells
Do dogs have nerve cells?
Yes, dogs do have nerve cells.
How can you use nerve cells in a sentence?
Nerve cells are a part of the nervous system. There are nerve cells all around the body. Without nerve cells your body would not function the way it does.
What is a group of nerve cells called?
A group of nerve cells all together is called a ganglion. These nerve cells are linked by synapses and attach to a nerve fiber.
