En vävliknande struktur av sammankopplade nervceller som åtskiljs vid synapsförbindelsen eller kopplas ihop genom cytoplasmatiska utskott. Hos t ex ryggradslösa djur medger nervnätet spridning av nervsignaler över en stor del av nätet, eftersom synapserna kan sprida impulser i alla riktningar.
A meshlike structure composed of interconnecting nerve cells that are separated at the synaptic junction or joined to one another by cytoplasmic processes. In invertebrates, for example, the nerve net allows nerve impulses to spread over a wide area of the net because synapses can pass information in any direction.
