I'd say the three major components are the dendrites (recieves signal from other neurons), soma (holds nucleus), and axon (sends signal)

In a neuron impulses move?
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
What parts of a neuron is capable of generating a graded potential?
The dendrites portion of a neuron will generate a potential.
What is a type a neuron?
1.motor neuron 2. sensory neuron 3.interneuron
Where neuron cell bodies located?
The cell body, called the SOMA, is the main part of the neuron. It is the main metabolic center or region of the neuron. The neuron has 3 parts: DENDRITES (inputs), SOMA (cell body), and AXON (output). The axon is the part which FIRES when sufficient inputs reach it at the axon hillock.
Why is the cell body of neuron in the trophic center of neuron?
The neuron cell body or soma is responsible for the nutrition and maintenance of of its peripheral parts such as the dendrites and axon. This makes the distances about equal from the center.
What are 3 parts of a neuron?
Soma, axon, dendrite
Name the 3 main parts of a neuron?
The three main parts of a neuron are the dendrites, the axon, and the soma. The dendrites are the nerve endings, the axon is the body, and the soma is the cell body.
What are the two parts the neuron is split up into?
There are actually 3 parts to a neuron. The dendrites are tree branch like projections that receive nerve impulses from another neuron, the cell body that contains the nucleus, and the axon, a long fiber that carries the nerve impulse away from the cell body to the next neuron.
What are the Parts of neuron?
1. The cell body (or soma) 2) The axon 3) The dendrites
What are the three parts of a neuron-?
The three main parts of a nueron are: the dendrites, the axon, and the cell body.
In a neuron impulses move?
In a neuron, impulses move from dendrite to axon. These impulses carry energy to different parts of the neuron.
Structure that carries messages between the brain snd other parts of the body?
The Neuron, and in this case, a motor neuron or a sensory neuron.
What is the 3 types of neuron?
one type of neuron is the motor neuron
What parts of a neuron is capable of generating a graded potential?
The dendrites portion of a neuron will generate a potential.
What neuron parts that does not have missile bodies?
Axon
What are the five parts of a reflex?
Five parts of a reflex arc are the receptor, sensory neuron (afferent), integration center, motor neuron (efferent), and effector.
What are the five parts of a reflex arc?
Summarized below are the 5 major components of the reflex arc: 1. Receptor 2. Afferent (sensory) neurons 3. Association neuron 4. Efferent (motor) neurons 5. Effector
