Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Axons terminate in fine extensions known as telodendria, which are responsible for forming synapses with other neurons or effector cells. B) Knobs is not a correct term for axon terminations. C) Collaterals are branches along the length of an axon, not the terminations. D) Dendrites are a type of neuronal process, not the terminations of axons. E) Synapses are the junctions between axon terminations and other cells, but not the actual extensions themselves.
