Neurons, of the nervous system. The dendrites receive impulses, and the axons send them to another neuron or an effector cell.

Axons and dendrites are part of?

Axons and dendrites are part of neurons. Axons relay signals away from the cell body, while dendrites receive signals from other neurons. Together, they help transmit information throughout the nervous system.


What is a cell body defined as?

A cell body is defined as a part of a nerve cell which contains the nucleus and the cytoplasm surrounding it, but it lacks all the axons and dendrites.


What do axons and dendrites belong to?

I'm assuming you're talking about dendrites... And the dendrites are what receive signals on a neuron. Signals are delivered through the axon to the axon terminal, which passes the signal to another neuron's dendrites.


What is the part of the neuron that carries messages?

Dendrites carry messages to a cell body of a neuron.


What are the two kinds of branches that extend from the cell body of a neuron?

The two kinds of branches that extend from the cell body of a neuron are dendrites and axons. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body, while axons transmit signals away from the cell body to other neurons or target cells.


What part of the brain has branching fingers that receive signals?

The neuron has dendrites that receive signals from other cells and axons that bring the signal to the next cell.


Are axons and dendrites found in connectivity tissue?

No, axons and dendrites are not found in connective tissue; they are components of neurons, which are part of the nervous system. Axons transmit electrical impulses away from the neuron, while dendrites receive signals from other neurons. Connective tissue serves to support, bind, and protect other tissues and organs but does not contain neurons or their processes.


The receiving part of a brain cell?

Nerve cells have two types of extensions: one that brings messages in called dendrites and one that takes messages out called axons. Most axons have a sheath that protects it and also produces a more rapid movement of the signal. Damage here is the cause of the disease called multiple sclerosis (MS).


What part of a nerve cell receives impulses?

dendrites


What is the receiving part of the brain cell?

The dendrites are the receiving part of the neuron.
