Nerve cells that conduct electrical impulses are called

Neurons

Explanation:

The nervous system is composed of cells called nerve cells. The nerve cells responsible for conducting nerve impulses are called Neurons. Neurons are specialized cells that carry/conduct messages (nerve impulses). These nerve impulses are electrical signals.

All neurons have the same basic parts although their shape may differ depending on the job they carry out.

The Cell body; controls the cell

The Axon or nerve fibre; transmits electrical signals from the cell body

Dendrites; are branched parts that receive electrical signals from other neurons
