CNS destination of the impulses that result in the localization of a somatic sensation Process information locally Extend into the cerebral white matter Triangular soma shape Carry the impulses that result in biceps brachii contraction Conduct impulses forPrimarily receive sensory Spheroidal soma shape motor commands input Pyramidal Cells Stellate Cells

Explanation / Answer

PYRAMIDAL CELLS:-

1. Triangular soma shape

2. Extend into cerebral white matter

3. Conduct inpulse for motor commands

4. carry the impulses that result in biceps brachii contraction

STELLATE CELLS:-

1. Process information locally

2. Spheroidal soma shape

3. Primarily receive sensory input

4. CNS destination of the impulses that result in the localization of a somatic sensation
