The Types and Function of Neurons. The nervous system consists of the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord), the peripheral nervous system (the sensory and motor neurons), and the autonomic nervous system (which regulates body processes such as digestion and heart rate).
Neurons communicate over long distances by sending signals called nerve impulses through the axons which make up a tract or nerve. Because each axon may branch into a whole tree, and because nerve impulses go down each branch when an axon divides, a single neuron may send signals to thousands of other neurons.
