Neuron+-+KE

=Introduction= toc Neurons are cells that carry and send messages through the human body. Neurons also sense your reflexes for example if you touch a hot stove a neuron will send the message to stop touching the hot stove. Neurons also for instance help your body in a positive way because without them you could get hurt easier and not realize it. Strength is another thing neurons have to have because of what they do to help out your body. In addition to this neurons are also all over your body because they send so many messages to your brand at a time. Neurons are the most important cells to have and that is mostly the main ideas you need to know about a neuron and what it does. What you will be learning is What do neurons do, Inside a neuron, A-L-S, and Why are they useful.

=Inside a neuron=

A neuron has a large cell body called the nucleus. Inside the neuron are many different parts for instance the dendrites and the axons are two important things neurons have. Dendrites for example carry the impulses to the cell body of the neuron. The axon carries the impulse away from the neurons cell body. The neuron can have many dendrites but there is only one axon. Axons and dendrites are sometimes referred to as nerve fiber.



=ALS=

Amyotrophic-Lateral-sclerosis. (A-L-S) sometimes called the Lou Gehrig disease. A-L-S is a deadly disease that damages your neurons. When you have A-L-S your neurons are not as developed as a normal neuron. Having A-L-S can cause you to get hurt easier because neurons send messages through your body and with this disease your body doesn't get the message as fast. For example think of a neuron like a plant in the summer its big and bloomed, in the winter its leaves are gone, this is like a neuron because a neuron with A-L-S is not as bloomed but a regular neuron is like that bloomed tree.

**What different types of neurons are their**

There are 3 different kind of neurons, there is the sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons. A sensory neuron picks up stimuli from the internal or external environment. An interneuron is the neuron that carries the nerve impulse from one neuron to another. Finally a motor neuron sends the impulse or message to the muscle or gland, then the muscle and gland react to the impulse or message. These are the three different types of neurons and how they worked. =Why are they useful=

Neurons are useful because they help your body out in a great way because they provide messages that keep your body safe. For instance they keep it safe by sending that message not to touch a burning stove or boiling water for example. Neurons can also be useful because of they help us live because not having neurons can be life threatening to us. Neurons are all in all just a great thing to have because of these use without neurons life would be real hard if we didn't have neurons. Finally neurons are a helpful in our lives and i hope you look a little more into neurons because they help us a real lot.

=Conclusion=

Neurons are most of the power in your body. As you learned about neurons they send messages through your body to your brain. Neurons can also die from diseases like A-L-S. Now that you learned a lot about neurons you really know what they do. What we learned about were what do neurons do, inside a neuron, A-L-S, different kinds of neurons, and why they are useful. Over all the neuron is a very big generator for our body. Finally in everything i learned about the neuron was a great experience and if you think about it having the neuron and its great ability is awesome to our body. Hope you enjoyed!
