A bundle of neurons is called a nerve. Nerves are the body\u2019s wiring. A single nerve cell has a central cell body, branching threads called dendrites, and a long wirelike axon. The dendrites carry electrical signals toward the cell body, while the axon carries the signal away. Because nerves don\u2019t touch one another, a message has to leap from one to the next across a tiny gap called a synapse.
