Nerve cells, abstract artwork
Nerve cells. Abstract computer artwork of nerve cells, or neurons. Neurons are responsible for passing information around the central nervous system (CNS) and from the CNS to the rest of the body. Each nerve cell comprises a body surrounded by numerous extensions called dendrites. Dendrites collect information from other nerve cells or from sensory cells. Each neuron also has one process called an axon, which passes information to other nerve cells, or to effector cells such as muscle fibres

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of nerve cells, depicted through abstract computer artwork. The mesmerizing image represents the vital role that neurons play in our central nervous system (CNS) and their ability to transmit information throughout our bodies. Neurons, also known as nerve cells, are responsible for relaying messages within the CNS and from the CNS to other parts of our body. Each neuron consists of a cell body surrounded by numerous dendrites - extensions that gather information from other nerve cells or sensory cells. These dendrites act as a network, collecting crucial data essential for proper functioning. The artwork also highlights another crucial component of neurons: axons. Axons serve as pathways for transmitting information between different nerve cells or even to effector cells like muscle fibers. This intricate communication system allows us to move, think, feel sensations, and perform countless bodily functions seamlessly. As we delve into this remarkable illustration, we gain a deeper appreciation for the complexity and elegance found within our own biology. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected every aspect of our human anatomy truly is – an exquisite symphony orchestrated by these neural networks. This print from Science Photo Library provides not only an artistic perspective but also offers insight into the fascinating world of neurology and biological systems.
