Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurons are highly specialized cells that receive and transmit information from one area of the body to another. This allows for communication within the nervous system and with other systems in the body. They are found in all animals with nervous systems, not just primates and humans. They are also not responsible for producing myelin, which is the function of glial cells.
