Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Unipolar neurons are a type of sensory neuron that have a single process that extends from the cell body and branches into two directions, one towards the peripheral ending and other towards the central nervous system. They transmit sensory information from sensory receptors in the skin, muscles, and organs to the spinal cord and brain. However, the unipolar neurons for the senses of hearing, equilibrium, vision, and smell are bipolar neurons.
