Identify the main types of cells in the nervous system, which are neurons and glial cells.
Understand that neurons, or nerve cells, are specialized for communication and are responsible for transmitting electrical signals.
Recognize that the primary function of neurons is to transmit electrical signals throughout the body, enabling communication between different parts of the body and the brain.
Differentiate between the functions of neurons and other cell types, such as glial cells, which provide support and protection for neurons.
Conclude that the primary function of nerve cells is not to store energy, provide structural support, or produce hormones, but to transmit electrical signals.
