  2. Overview of neuron structure and function - Khan Academy

    Most neurons follow the same general structural plan, but the structure of individual neurons varies and is adapted to the specific function a given neuron (or class of neurons) needs to …

  3. Overview of neuron structure (types of neurons) - Khan Academy

    This video introduces the structure and structural types of neurons. Explore the structure of neurons, their types, and functions. Uncover the roles of dendrites, axons, and the soma. …

  4. Anatomy of a neuron (video) | Human biology | Khan Academy

    Neurons (or nerve cells) are specialized cells that transmit and receive electrical signals in the body. Neurons are composed of three main parts: dendrites, a cell body, and an axon.

  5. Anatomie eines Neurons (Video) | Khan Akademy

    Neuronen (oder Nervenzellen) sind spezialisierte Zellen, die elektrische Signale im Körper übertragen und empfangen. Neurone bestehen aus drei Hauptbestandteilen: Dendriten, einen …

  6. Signal propagation: The movement of signals between neurons

    Your brain is a hotbed of electrochemical activity. About 100 billion neurons are each firing off 5-50 messages (action potentials) per second. This activity allows you to process your …

  7. Depolarization, hyperpolarization & neuron action potentials …

    In neurons, the cell enters a state of hyperpolarization immediately following the generation of an action potential. While hyperpolarized, the neuron is in a refractory period that lasts roughly 2 …
