What are some collections of nerve cell bodies found in a small number of locations outside the central nervous system are called?
Ganglia. Ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies found outside the central nervous system, typically located along the peripheral nerves. They can be sensory ganglia (containing cell bodies of sensory neurons) or autonomic ganglia (containing cell bodies of autonomic neurons).
Are collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the PNS?
Yes, collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are known as ganglia. Ganglia can contain cell bodies of sensory neurons (dorsal root ganglia) or autonomic neurons (autonomic ganglia) that help relay information to and from the central nervous system.
What nerves in your body to your brain?
All nerves in the body are connected by synapses to the ganglia in the spinal cord to where the travel back up to the brain
What contains sensory neuron cell bodies?
The sensory neuron cell bodies are located in clusters called ganglia. These ganglia can be found either outside the spinal cord (dorsal root ganglia for most spinal nerves) or within the sensory organs themselves (such as in the eye or ear).
Where do the nerves go from a ganglion?
Nerves from a ganglion typically project to target tissues, organs, or other ganglia. They carry information such as sensory input or motor commands. The specific pathway and function of the nerves depend on the location and type of ganglion.
What are the small groups of nerves outside the brain called?
The small groups of nerves outside the brain are called ganglia. Ganglia are clusters of nerve cell bodies (neurons) that are part of the peripheral nervous system and can be found along nerve pathways.
What are small groups of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
Ganglion or ganglia .
What is the term for the grouping of nerves?
ganglia i think
Nerves that carry impulses toward the Central Nervous system only are?
Sensory neurons are nerves that carry electrical signals only toward the Central Nervous System. These nerves are found in the ganglia.

Yes, collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are known as ganglia. Ganglia can contain cell bodies of sensory neurons (dorsal root ganglia) or autonomic neurons (autonomic ganglia) that help relay information to and from the central nervous system.
Which neuron is common only in dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord and sensory ganglia of cranial nerves?
multipolar neuron
What are collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the PN?
Ganglia
Collections of neuron cell bodies associated with nerves in the PNS?
Ganglia
Small groups of nerves outside the brain and spinal cord?
Peripheral nerves.
Why ganglia absent in ventral roots?
Ganglia are collections of cell bodies of neurons found outside the central nervous system, usually associated with sensory neurons. Ventral roots contain motor neurons, which do not typically have ganglia. Sensory neurons, responsible for transmitting information from the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system, are found in dorsal roots where ganglia are present.
What nerves in your body to your brain?
All nerves in the body are connected by synapses to the ganglia in the spinal cord to where the travel back up to the brain
