The Nervous System
... A nerve cell or neuron is the basic element of the nervous system. All neurons have three parts: 1. The cell body, which has branches or fibers that reach out to send or receive impulses. 2. Dendrites, which are thin branching extensions of the cell body. They conduct nerve impulses toward the cell ...
