Adult Nervous system Neuron

Any neuron with a cell body in the head and a process in the cervical connective. There are approximately 350 of these on each side of the brain (Namiki et al., 2018).

Namiki et al. (2018) operationally define a descending neuron as having a cell body in the brain and a process in the cervical connective, however, they include one neuron with a cell body in the head, but not the brain. This term encompasses such neurons - https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1373-1705.
