English - English
A nerve fibre which is a long slender projection of a nerve cell, and which conducts nerve impulses away from the body of the cell to a synapse
The axon is the "output" part of a biological neuron When a neuron fires, a pulse of electrical activity flows along the axon Towards its end, or ends, the axon splits into a tree The ends of the axon come into close contact with the dendrites of other neurons These junctions are termed synapses Axons may be short (a couple of millimetres) or long (e g the axons of the nerves that run down the legs of a reasonably large animal )
{i} part of the neuron that sends impulses away from the cell (Anatomy)
A long, slender part of a neuron that carries the electrochemical signal to another neuron
the extension of a nerve cell, as a thin tube which may be as long a metre or a few short microns in length The axon, like the cell body is able to depolarise and carry impulses along its length The impulses from one axon to another nerve cell are transmitted at a synapse Axons may be myelinated or unmeyelinated, and they may vary in diameter Thicker, myelinated axons transmit impulses faster than thins unmeyelinated axons
the neuron's long and unbranched fiber that carries impulses away from the cell to the next neuron
Core nerve fibre, protected by the myelin sheath, which extends from the cell body and carries signals to other nerves or muscles
The part of the nerve cell that transmits impulses from the nerve body
The tail-like part of the neuron through which information exits the cell
A long thin branch of a neuron that carries impulses away from the neuron
long nerve fiber that conducts away from the cell body of the neuron
ax·on (àk¹sòn´) noun The usually long process of a nerve fiber that generally conducts impulses away from the body of the nerve cell
The part of a nerve cell that transmits signals to other structures or nerves
The extended part of a neuron that carries an impulse towards the synapse and transmits the message to other neurons
The neurite that carries action potentials leaving the cell body of a neuron and distributes the signal to postsynaptic target cells
The neuron's "wire," a long (0 1 - 2,000 mm), spiderthread-thin portion of the neuron that carries voltages between the neuron's input sites (concentrated on cell body and dendritic tree) and the neuron's outputs, its many-branched axon terminals that make synapses onto downstream neurons It's typically a one-way street, messages flowing from the dendrites and cell body to the far end of the axon where synapses are made [26, 31, 34]
A long structure in the nerve cell that acts as a pathway for nerve impulses
The projection of the nerve cell body that carries information to the postsynaptic neuron
The long, hairlike extension of a nerve cell that carries a message to the next nerve cell
The cable-like structure neurons used to send messages to other neurons It carries the neuron's electrical message
refers to: neural cell The part of a biological neural cell that contains the dendrites, connecting this neural cell to other cells The incoming stimulation of a neural cell is transported from the cell's core through the axon to the outgoing connections
highly specialized relatively long extension (process) of a neuron used for conduction of electrical messages (i e action potentials) Axons are considerably more specialized and therefore easier to understand than other excitable tissues They contain the "bare minimum" of ion channels necessary for excitability Larger vertebrate axons are insulated by myelin
The elongated part of the neurone that carries impulses from the cell body to other nerve cells or effector organs Neurones only have one axon Damage to the axon may produce neuropathy or neuropathic pain
This is the main outgrowth of a neurone and is dependent on the cell body
One of the two parts of the nerve; the "wire" that relays impulses from the nerve cell body to other nerves, muscles and other receptors
The branch of a neuron (a nerve cell) which sends messages to other neurons
Elongate extension of a neuron that conducts an action potential
a long process of neurons that conducts neural impulses to muscles, tissues and organs
