How do you describe a neuron?

Neurons are cells that transfer stimuli to other cells. 

Structure of Neurons 
Cell Body - contains nucleus and organelles 

Dendrites - receive input 

Axon - conducts impulses away from the cell body 

Axon hillock - an enlarged region where an axon attaches to the cell body 

Synaptic terminal - Neurotransmitters are manufactured in the cell body but released from synaptic terminals. The neurotransmitters stimulate other neurons. 

Synapse - A synapse is the junction between the synaptic terminal and another cell. The other cell is called a postsynaptic cell.
