Difference between Growth cone and Nervous system

Growth cone vs. Nervous system

A growth cone is a big actin-supported extension of a developing or regenerating neurite seeking its synaptic target. The nervous system is the part of an animal that coordinates its actions by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body.

Similarities between Growth cone and Nervous system

Growth cone and Nervous system have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Axon, Axon guidance, Neuron, Neuroregeneration, Santiago Ramón y Cajal, Synapse.

Axon

An axon (from Greek ἄξων áxōn, axis) or nerve fiber, is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that typically conducts electrical impulses known as action potentials, away from the nerve cell body.

Axon guidance

Axon guidance (also called axon pathfinding) is a subfield of neural development concerning the process by which neurons send out axons to reach the correct targets.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.

Neuroregeneration

Neuroregeneration refers to the regrowth or repair of nervous tissues, cells or cell products.

Santiago Ramón y Cajal

Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1 May 1852 – 17 October 1934) was a Spanish neuroscientist and pathologist, specializing in neuroanatomy, particularly the histology of the central nervous system.

Synapse

In the nervous system, a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron (or nerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron or to the target efferent cell.
