Nerve cells, artwork F007 / 5506
Computer artwork of nerve cells, also called neurons. 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 nerve cells, also known as neurons. Against a striking black background, the artwork F007 / 5506 by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY captures the essence of these vital components of our central nervous system (CNS). Neurons play a crucial role in transmitting information throughout our bodies. They are responsible for relaying messages within the CNS and facilitating communication between the CNS and other parts of our body. Each neuron consists of a cell body surrounded by numerous dendrites, which act as extensions that gather information from other nerve cells or sensory cells. The image highlights the complexity and interconnectedness found within neural networks. It portrays how electrical impulses travel through an axon – a single process present in each neuron – to reach other cells such as muscle fibers or additional nerve cells. With its focus on biology, research, medicine, and health, this artwork serves as a visual representation of neurology's importance in understanding human physiology. Its aesthetic appeal combined with its scientific significance makes it an ideal piece for medical professionals, researchers, or anyone fascinated by the wonders of our nervous system.
