The part of the neuron that should remain intact for regeneration.

Introduction:

Neurons or nerve cells are specialized cells that are capable of carrying stimulus and response to the stimulus from one part of the body to another. These cells carry the information in the form an action potential. The stimulus from the recipient cell is provided to the CNS (central nervous system) or the PNS (peripheral nervous system). The response is then carried back to the target cells by neurons for producing a reaction toward the stimulus.
