Nerve cell, artwork F007 / 5529
Computer artwork of a nerve cells, also called neuron. Neurons are responsible for passing information around the central nervous system (CNS) and from the CNS to the rest of the body. The nerve cell comprises a nerve cell body surrounded by numerous extensions called dendrites, which collect information from other nerve cells or from sensory cells. Each neuron has one process called an axon through which information passes to other cells, including other nerve cells and muscle fibres

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a nerve cell, also known as a neuron. With its black background, the central focus is on this stunning computer artwork that represents the essential building block of our nervous system. Neurons play a vital role in transmitting information throughout our bodies. The image depicts a nerve cell body surrounded by numerous dendrites, which act as extensions collecting information from other cells or sensory receptors. Each neuron possesses an axon, serving as a pathway for transferring information to other cells and muscle fibers. With its scientific accuracy and attention to detail, this artwork symbolizes the remarkable complexity of neural communication. It serves as a reminder of how these tiny structures work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure proper functioning of our central nervous system. This mesmerizing illustration holds great significance in various fields such as biology, research, medicine, and neurology. Its visual representation aids scientists and healthcare professionals in understanding neurological processes and developing treatments for related conditions. As we gaze upon this striking image captured by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, we are reminded of the wonders within our own bodies – where electrical impulses travel through synapses forming intricate neural networks that enable us to perceive stimuli and respond accordingly.
