Functioning of its three parts:

• Dendrite: It detect information and conducts the messages towards the cell body.
• Cell body: It contains nucleus, mitochondria, and other cell organelles. It maintains the growth of the cell.
• Axon: It conducts messages away from the cell body and pass to the next neuron.

- The neurons show high irritability and transfer stimuli along them.

- It enables animals to move in accordance with the stimuli from outside and this is a fundamental feature of most animals Basically, they transfer impulses all throughout the brain which help control our movement.
