Neurons, also known as nerve cells, are the fundamental units of the nervous system. They are specialized for receiving stimuli, generating electrical signals (nerve impulses), and conducting these impulses along their axons to communicate with other neurons, muscles, or glands.
Neurons are the specialized cells responsible for communication via impulses in the nervous system.
Plasma cells are B lymphocytes that produce antibodies. Adipocytes are fat storage cells. Macrophages are phagocytic cells involved in the immune response. None of these are primarily responsible for receiving and conducting electrical impulses like neurons.
