Across
  1. 3. stores genetic information; processing center of the cell
  2. 4. Receives electrical signals from outside environment
  3. 6. contains the nucleus; main part of the neuron
  4. 7. gap between sheaths that also increases electrical signal speed
  5. 8. sends electrical signal into the synapse and next neuron/cell
Down
  1. 1. makes the myelin; regenerates nerves that were damaged
  2. 2. insulation around the axon that increases electrical signal speed
  3. 5. long portion of the neuron that is the site of the action potential
