ABOUT NEURONS The neural network of the human body is a complex system to deal with. The building blocks of the nervous system are the nerve cells called neurons. Each nerve cell leads to the transferring information and carrying out neural messages that help us react to the stimulus provided. The two times of the neurons that are helpful in doing so are called: 1. Sensory neurons and 2. Motor neurons. The first one is responsible for transmitting information from the sense organs to the brain through the spinal cord with the help of neurons whereas the second one does just the opposite. It sends messages from the brain and spinal cord via the body tissues and make reactions happen to a particular action. The structure of the neuron is attached below:  Fig 1: Motor neurons. The branch-like structure that emerges from the cell body are the dendrites. These structures are useful in catching up the information that is being transmitted to it from the terminal endings of one cell to th...
