FUNCTION Network of neurons that communicate and control the body through electrical impulses Includes neurons, brain and spinal cord
4
NEURONS
5
Axons: extension of cell body Axon terminal: end of the axon Dendrites: receive messages from other neurons
6
NEURONS Dendrites: receive messages from other neurons Synapse: gap between neurons
7
NEURONS Myelin sheath: lipid layer around axon (insulator)
