The part of a neuron that carries impulses toward the cell body is the:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dendrites are the part of a neuron that receive signals or impulses from other neurons and carry them towards the cell body. The axon, on the other hand, carries impulses away from the cell body. Schwann cells are the cells that produce the myelin sheath which covers and insulates the axon. Thus, choice A is the correct answer.
