Explanation:

Neurons are the fundamental unit of the nervous system. Neurons are also called as nerve cells. The main function of the neurons is to pass the receiving information and send appropriate signals to the rest parts of the body. The signals received are in the form of electrical signals. Neuron comprises of dendrite, axon and cell body. Dendrites receives messages from the surrounding and sends it to the cell body. Cell body consists of nucleus, mitochondria and other organelles. Axon transmits the message away from the cell body and pass it to the the next receiving neuron.

Neuron is one of the unit of cell that constitutes nervous tissues that has the property of transmitting and receiving nervous impulses .

All nerve cells basically have a cell body or soma ( the nucleus containing central part of a neuron ) Which has two types of branches , namely dendrites ( to receive messages ) and an axon ( to convey messages away from the soma ) . All neurons of nervous tissue originated from the same germinal layer called ectoderm ( more aptly the neutral ectoderm ) .
