Cytoarchitectonics

Cytoarchitecture

Cytoarchitecture is a science that studies the structure and organization of biological cells, as well as their relationships in the tissues and organs of animals and plants. It arose at the intersection of biology, microbiology, histology and cytology. Cytoarchitecture studies the structure and functions of various types of cells - neurons, muscle cells, epithelial cells.

General characteristics of the main cell types

Neurons (neurons) are the bulk of nerve cells - 80%, receiving information from other cells involved in the regulation and coordination of body functions.

Muscle cells -
