Across
- 3. Tube-like structure that functions by carrying an electrical impulse from the cell body to the axon terminals
- 4. Permits the entry of a neuron to move an electrical or chemical signal from one neuron to another neuron
- 5. Molecules used by the nervous system to transmit messages between neurons, or from neurons to muscles.
- 6. Release neurotransmitters to communicate with the next cell
- 8. The soma contains the nucleus, which controls the cell’s activities,
Down
- 1. A branch-like structure that functions by receiving messages from other neurons and allows the transmission of messages of the cell body
- 2. Speeds up electrical signal transmission.
- 7. Specialized cells that transmit chemical and electrical signals in the brain
