Nerve cells specialized on transmitting messages from one part of the body to another.

Motor neurons send information away from the central nervous system (CNS). Sensory neurons send information toward the CNS. Inter-neurons send information between motor and sensory neurons.

Human nerve cells, or neurons, are specialized cells that transmit electrical signals throughout the body. They have a cell body, dendrites that receive signals, and an axon that carries signals away. Neurons communicate with each other at junctions called synapses by releasing chemicals called neurotransmitters.
