| Description | Neurons are diverse in shape and size. A typical neuron has a cell body (or soma) with fibre-like processes called dendrites and axons emerging from it. The dendrites are branches that leave the cell body and receive information from adjoining neurons. The dendrites have knob-like extensions called dendritic spines. The cell body has an extensive system of rough endoplasmic reticulum containing basophilic granules (Nissl substance), which synthesize proteins. The dendritic spines, dendrites and soma receive information from other cells. Book Name: Principles of Physiology for the Anaesthetist |
