Document Summary
Neurotransmitter is manufactured in cell body, stored in terminal buttons, and is released when electrical signal reaches it. Another way neurons are classified is by the neurotransmitter they release. Designed to act alone and to change one form of energy into electric. All receptors have ability to change one form of energy to another. Carrying signals from cns out toward the body. They can result in a response from somewhere) carrying it out to peripheral nervous system. Because of directional flow they are sometimes called efferent (away. All of the neurons that exist between afferent and efferent excitatory signals they are receiving against the amount of inhibitory signals. Acting as decision making neurons because they balance amount of. Neurons constitute only about half the volume of the cns. Neurons have no means of storing nutrients so they must constantly be supplied with nutrient and oxygen by supporting cells or they would die.
