Neutron stars are created when giant stars die in supernovas and their cores collapse, with the protons and electrons essentially melting into each other to form neutrons. Credit: NASA/Dana Berry
I'm a eukaryotic, plant cell. I would be the central vacuole that stores excess water, food, and waste. There's only one of me in a plant cell. If I weren't in the cell, it would collapse or burst, because it well lose its turgor pressure. Moreover, the cell won't have enough space to store all the water and molecules needed for conducting photosynthesis. I resemble the stomach in a human body; a stomach stores food and water for later use.
A single motor neuron together with all the skeletal muscle fibers it innervates is called a motor unit.
Motor neurons are more than just relays for the motor commands sent down the hierarchy from higher levels. They themselves are parts of intricate circuits that carry out extensive information processing.
Due to their highly branching, intricate dendritic trees, motor neurons are able to integrate inputs from several other neurons and generate accurate outputs.
A single motor neuron, and nothing else, innervates each and every muscle fiber (make sure you understand the difference between a muscle and a muscle fiber). However, several muscle fibers can be innervated by a single motor neuron.
A motor unit is the aggregate of a single motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers that it innervates. The innervation ratio refers to how many fibers a motor unit innervates.
