- 12. / location of nucleus in a neuron
Down
- 1. / controls voluntary activities such as activation of skeletal muscles
- 2. / part of neuron that conducts impulses away from cell body
- 3. / carries impulses to all parts of the body, made of nerves that extend from brain and spinal cord
- 4. / increases the speed of impulse transmission
