  • dendrites retrieve information from the cell body and send it to the axon
  • Cell body controls the neuron's activities.
  • Nucleus stores the DNA of the neuron
  • Myelin sheath insulates axons for faster and more efficient messaging
  • Axon terminal sends signals to other neurons
  • Node of Ranvier allows ions in and out to speed up electrical conduct
  • The end of one neuron connects to another cell's cell body. This connection point is the synapse
  • Neurons are specialised cells that carry information in the form of electrical impulse
  • neurons send and receive neurotransmitters
