lo 6.1. what is the function of neurons? generate and circulate cerebrospinal fluid produce hormones and enzymes generate heat and light transmit electrical and chemical signals facilitate muscle contraction
Neurons are the fundamental units of the nervous system. Their main role is to transmit electrical and chemical signals (neural impulses) throughout the body for communication between different parts of the nervous - system and to coordinate bodily functions. They do not generate and circulate cerebrospinal fluid (which is a function of certain cells in the brain), produce hormones and enzymes (a function of endocrine and exocrine glands), generate heat and light, or directly facilitate muscle contraction (muscle contraction is mainly facilitated by muscle cells and the neuromuscular junction).
