Question

Cell bodies or cyton is found in
A) Brain
B) Spinal cord
C) Brain and ganglia
D) Brain, spinal cord and ganglia

Answer 1

Option D  is the brain, spinal cord, and ganglia.

• Cytons or Cell bodies are cells that have a nucleus present in the center of the cell and is filled with high content of cytoplasm. This cytoplasm present inside the cytons is called neuroplasm.

• The entire nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and ganglia which is a part of the nerve.

• The main function or the use of the cytons is that they regulate the metabolism of the neurons.

• The further projections of cytons are called dendrites and these structures help in the transmission of nerve signals.

Answer 2

Answer:

D) Cell bodies or cyton is found in brain, spinal cord and ganglia.

Explanation:

• A cell body or perikaryon is another name for a Cyton. It has a central nucleus with a lot of cytoplasm, which is known as neuroplasm.
• The nucleus is contained in the Cyton, which is the cell body of the neuron.
• It receives electric impulses from other neurons via dendrites and directs them to the axon, where they travel away from the cell body.
