A nerve impulse starts at the dendrite
axon
The dendrite of a neuron usually receives a chemical signal from another neuron, although a cell body (soma), or sometimes even an axon, of another neuron can receive the signal.Synapses which occur between an axon and a dendrite are called axodendritic synapses, while synapses between an axon and a cell body are called axosomatic synapses, and synapses between an axon and an axon are called axoaxonic synapses.
axon to dendrite
Cell body.Impulses a received in the dendrite, go through the cell body and out to the axon, where they are transmitted to the next dendrite. Easy way to remember it, it's the alphabet backwards - Dendrite, Cell Body, Axon
These instructions are received in the form of an impulse stimulation of a particular protein channel on the dendrite by a neurotransmitter termed acetycholine (ACh).
Synaptic of dendrite
The dendrite receives a stimulus and conducts the nerve impulse toward the cell body.

The branching fiber that is the first part of the neuron to receive a nervous system impulse is called a dendrite. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons or sensory receptors and transmit these signals to the cell body of the neuron. They play a crucial role in receiving and integrating incoming information in the nervous system.
Dendrites receive signals from post-synaptic nerve
