Differentiate between :
Dendrites and axons.
Dendrites receive electrochemical impulses from other neurons, and carry them inwards and towards the cell body, while axons carry the impulses away from the cell body. Dendrites are short and heavily branched in appearance, while axons are much longer. Usually, dendrites receive neuron signals, and axons transmit them. Most neurons have a lot of dendrites and only have one axon.
