Signals passing along a neuron, animation. Neurons (nerve cells) are responsible for passing information around the central nervous system (CNS) and from the CNS to the rest of the body. The nerve cell comprises a nerve cell body surrounded by numerous extensions called dendrites, which collect information from other nerve cells or from sensory cells. The axon (to the left) enables the neuron to pass this sensory information on to muscle fibres or other nerve cells. | |
