Reflect on the inter-connectedness between neurons and the central nervous system, including the pathway and distribution of electrical impulses.

Reflect on how neurons communicate with each other and review the concept of neuroplasticity.

In 4 or 5 sentences, describe the anatomy of the basic unit of the nervous system, the neuron. Include each part of the neuron and a general overview of electrical impulse conduction, the pathway it travels, and the net result at the termination of the impulse. Be specific and provide examples.
