Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The axon is a single, elongated structure that carries electric impulses away from the cell body towards the terminals which then pass on to other neurons or body tissues. Dendrites are the structures that receive signals from other neurons and carry them towards the cell body. Nerve cell and multipolar neuron are more general terms used to describe any neuron with a single axon and multiple dendrites or neurons with multiple axons and dendrites respectively.
