A nerve cell that carries impulses in the nervous system
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to get an important message across a noisy room during a party. Just like you need to navigate through the crowd and make sure your message reaches the right person, a neuron in the nervous system carries impulses to communicate signals from one part of the body to another. Here, you are like the neuron, the message is the nerve impulse, and the noisy room is similar to the complex network of the nervous system, where the goal is to ensure the message travels accurately and efficiently to its destination.
