=Neurons= toc =Introduction=

Did you know that there are many cells in this world most cells are specialized to work and to function the human body. The Neuron is a very important cell without the neuron the human body won't be able to move this is why we need the Neuron. For the neurons to work it has to function, and it also has to have a structure of its own, and in the real world people with diabetes might have some nerve problems. The neurons work by sending messages throughout the whole entire body which then the body reacts. It is very important to know how a Neuron function to help the human body to move and to react.

=Structures of a Neuron=

Neurons have amazing structures such as the axon, dendrite, and the axon tips. The axon looks like mini sausages, and the Dendrite looks like tree branches. These two structures are very important and they help the human body to work. The neurons looks like a web connected to each other but neurons look very different from other cells. The neuron cell body is called the soma according to (“Nervous system”). Neurons are wrapped together in cordlike bundles called nerves. Neurons are very different when you look at them to other cells. The cell body in the neuron are the cytosol, nucleus, golgi apparatus, polyribosomes, neuronal membrane, mitochondria, rough endoplasmic, and the nissl bodies. These are the main body parts of the neuron (“Nervous system”). Although the cells might have fascinating body structures but the most important is the dendrite and the axon. Above all the dendrites is one of the processes it receives impulses past from other neurons. Dendrites are like small tiny roots. The Axon is also a process. It carries impulses away from the cell body, the axon is like mini sausages. First and foremost it sends messages to one neuron to another, basically the structures are carrying impulses. Notably the axon tips are also very important there job is to drop off the messages and axon tips are like suction tips (“Nervous system”). But have you ever wondered what kind of problems the Neurons had? Well everyday people with diabetes can have different nerve problems.



=Functions of a Neuron=

Neurons are specialized cells that are like electricity that work like an electrical circuit that controls the reactions of your body that makes up your whole nervous system. Neurons are very important. It controls your movement, thoughts, senses, and feelings. It does that by transporting messages to one part of a neuron to another (“Neuron”). The nerves form pathways that carry signals rapidly throughout your whole body transport the messages it tells the muscles to move. First and foremost nerve impulse is a message sent around the body and also the brain and the spinal cord form the central nervous system. For example, breathing, digestion and your heartbeat also depend on the nervous system (“Parts of the Nerve Cell and Their Functions”). In other words, the brain basically tells the parts of the body to move from the neurons(“Neuron”). Just like an electrical system in a house, the nerve cell is made up of many structures that help it work in the human body.

There can be many diseases in a cell but the Neuron can have a really serious disease like diabetes. People with diabetes can have some nerve problems. People with diabetes can develop nerve damage throughout the whole body. Nerve problems can happen in every organ system (“Tips of Treating Diabetic nerve pain”). People with Diabetes can develop nerve problems at anytime. Some symptoms include pain, tingling, numbness,loss of feeling from the hand, arms, feet, and legs (“Tips of Treating Diabetic nerve pain”). Most importantly diabetes neuropathies are a family of nerve disorders caused by diabetes. This means that people with diabetes have a risk of having nerve problems. On the other hand people who have problems with controlling their blood sugar as well as those with high levels of blood fat and blood pressure and also those who are overweight can have nerve problems (“Tips of Treating Diabetic nerve pain”). This means that people with diabetes have a slight chance of having nerve problems.

= = =Conclusion= The neuron is a very fascinating cell. Millions upon millions of the nerve cells allow us to interact in the everyday world. The neurons function and structure are very important for the human body. It basically allows us to move our body. Unfortunately the neuron can be damaged by diabetes. People with diabetes can have serious nerve problems such as numbness and other nerve problems.The neuron is like electricity being sent throughout houses and buildings, The Neurons send messages throughout the body and electricity is sent throughout land and buildings. = = = = = = =References=
