Cell shapes: spherical

Spherical cells can also be found in tissues.  This image shows dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, which are highly specialized to conduct sensory signals into the brain and spinal cord.  Each cell possesses a well-defined nucleus and nucleolus. DRG neurons are surrounded by small supporting cells (Schwann cells).  Dorsal root ganglion  1000x
