Question
What are the various functions of neurons?

Answer

Important functions of neurons are following:
  1. Neurons are specialized cells which possess the unique property of converting various forms or stimuli into electrical impulses.
  2. They are also specialized for reception, conduction and transmission of information in the form of electrochemical signals.
  3. They receive information from sense organs or from other adjacent neurons, carry them to the central nervous system (brain and Spinal cord), and bring motor information from the central nervous system to the motor organs (muscles and glands).
