the neuron is composed of 4 parts the cell body which contains the nucleus the axon which carry the information and the terminal button which distribute the neurons the dendrites which are the branches that come out.... the dendrites receive the signal.

What is the receiving part of a brain cell?
The receiving part of a brain cell is called the dendritic tree. Dendrites are small branching structures that protrude from the cell body of a neuron. They receive electrical signals and chemical messages from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body.
What part of neuron carries and receives info?
The part of the neuron that receives the majority of inputs is the dendritic tree. In most neurons its appearance is very similar to what a tree would look like in Autumn with no leaves. The part that carries information away and toward the dendrites of other cells is called the axon. There is only one axon per neuron and they can vary quite considerably in their length.
The climate above the tree line is like?
The climate above the tree line is called the alpine climate, or the tundra.
Why do neurons have many branched endings?
synapses are very important in the communication of the different nerve cells or neurons - a process called neurotransmission.
What visual aid is like a family tree and shows the phylogenetic relationships of organisms?
The family tree like visual aid for organisms is called a cladogram. It shows the phylogenetic relationships and represents the evolutionary tree of life.

What is the part of the neuron that receives impulses is called the?
Neural input happens at the dendrites (dendritic tree) of the neuron, but some neurons, notably the sympathetic, can receive input at the axon hillock (where the axon leaves the soma).
What terminates in a grape-like cluster of respiratory structures?
The bronchial tree, specifically the bronchioles, terminate in a grape0like cluster of respiratory structures. These structures are the alveoli.

Is the Sequoia tree a pine tree?
Sequoia tree also belong to Coniferales like Pine tree hence both have cones as reproductive structures.
When Conspicuous shelf like or saddle like structures on the surface of a tree that indiciate a fungus is growing within the tree are for?
reproduction and spore dispersal
What are the parts of neuron and its function?
The three main parts of a neuron are the soma (cell body), the axons, the long trailing output of a neuron and the dendrite or dendritic tree. Almost all neurons have axons, but not all axons have a dendritic tree.

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.
Where can a neuron be stimulated?
The cell membrane becomes more permeable to the sodium potassium ions.
What does the oak tree seeds look like?
Seeds of the Oak tree are called 'acorns'.
