Answer:

There are two broad classes of cells in the nervous system: neurons, which process information, and glia, which provide the neurons with mechanical and metabolic support.

Three general categories of neurons are commonly recognized (Peters, Palay, & Webster, 1976). Receptors are highly specialized neurons that act to encodesensory information. For example, the photoreceptors of the eye transform variations in light intensity into electrical and chemical signals that can be read by other nerve cells. It is the receptor cells that begin the process of sensation and perception. Interneurons form the second category of nerve cells. These cells receive signals from and send signals to other nerve cells. Interneurons serve to process information in many different ways and constitute the bulk of the human nervous system. Effectors or motor neurons are the third class of neurons. These cells send signals to the muscles and glands of the body, thereby directly governing the behavior of the organism.

Nerve cells show both excitability and conductivity . No other body cell shows excitability.
