what is the part of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses
Two general types of cells are found in the nervous system: neurons and neuroglia. A. Neurons 1. Consist of three main partsâdendrites (conduct impulses to cell body of neuron); cell body of neuron; and axon (conducts impulses away from cell body of neuron) 2.he nervous system transmits information rapidly by means of nerve impulses conducted from one body area to another. The nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal cord, and the many nerves of the body.
