Question

Neurons receive signals through their ________ and send signals to other neurons through their ________.
  1. Dendrites, receptors
  2. End feet, cell bodies and dendrites
  3. Cell bodies and dendrites, axons
  4. Transmitter vesicles, axons

A
Cell bodies and dendrites, axons
B
End feet, cell bodies and dendrites
C
Dendrites, receptors
D
Transmitter vesicles, axons
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The signals in a neuron are in the form a depolarisation wave which follows a strict direction within the neuron. The signal is picked up the cyton through the dendrites and the depolarisation wave passes through the axon to reach the nerve endings and transmit signals to the next neuron.
The correct answer is 'cell bodies and dendrites, axons'.
