The answer is NEURONS. This is a specialized cell that transmits and receive electrical impulse. It is also the basic building block of the central nervous system. The connections between each neuron is called synapse. Axons are a part of neurons that transmit signals away from  the body or soma. Dendrites on the other hand receive signals from the axons of other neurons. Signals that are transmitted can be an excitatory or inhibitory. If the net impulse is enough to excite the neuron an action potential can be created. This can originate from the soma and will propaget along the axon activating the synapse and will excite another neuron.

When you are cold, your muscles begin to contract involuntarily and cause you to shiver. why do you think this occurs? how does
DanielleElmas [232]
Shivering occurs when the core temperature of the body begins to decrease which would threaten normal body function. Shivering is a response by the body to bring back temperature back to homeostasis. Trembling is the continual involuntary contraction of muscles. Muscle activity releases heat that warms up the body. This is the reason why we sweat during physical activities as the body sheds excess heat generated by the muscles in order to maintain the homeostatic body temperatures of 37 degrees centigrade.
