The correct option among the following is
Nervous tissues are derived from
The functional unit of nervous system is
Which of the following statements is incorrect
Neuroplasm of neuron contains myelin sheath, neurofibrils and Schwann cells.
Cyton of neuron contains smaller branches called dendrites; these conduct impulses away from the Cyton.
Myelin sheath is not continuous. It is interrupted by gaps called nodes of Ranvier.
A long branch that arises from cyton is called axons which carry impulses towards the cyton.
