I believe it's Dendrites..but not for sure..but I'm working on physiology for the American school and I found this on page 400 if you're working on the same thing

What are extensions of a neuron that receive signals?
These are called 'dendrites'
What is a neurofibril?
A neurofibril is a fibril found in the cytoplasm of a neuron and is only visible by light microscopy. Its function is to give support and shape the nerve cell.
When a haploid spore lands on wet soil or rocks it germinates into a threadlike structure called a?
When a haploid spore lands on wet soil or rocks it germinates into a threadlike structure called a hyphae.
What is the portion of the neuron that accepts incoming impulses?
The receptor is the part of the neuron (usually a dendrite) that detects a stimulus. Dendrites are extensions of the main cellular body of the neuron called the soma; the impulse is passed on to another neuron at the other end, which is called the axon. Neurons transmit impulses to each other via electro-chemical connections to each other that are known as synapses.
Bread mold produce masses threadlike structure called?
The structures are called hyphae.
What are the extensions of the cell body?
The extensions of the neuron cell body (soma) are called dendrites. Refer to the related link below for an illustration of a neuron.
What are extensions of a neuron that receive signals?
These are called 'dendrites'
The part of the neuron that has branched extensions that are specialized to receive information are the?
dendrites. Dendrites are specialized structures on a neuron that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body. They play a crucial role in integrating information from multiple sources to determine the neuron's response.
What is a long thin extension of the cell body of a neuron?
An Axon. I believe that is what you are asking for.
What keeps the neuron in working order and has specialized extensions that arise from it?
Myelin sheath
What is a neurofibril?
A neurofibril is a fibril found in the cytoplasm of a neuron and is only visible by light microscopy. Its function is to give support and shape the nerve cell.
What is the threadlike part of a plant called?
tendril
What is the Threadlike tail on a protozoan called?
Flagellum.
What is the structure of a neuron and what kinds of neurons are found in the body?
A neuron has a large cell body that contains the nucleus, threadlike extensions called ­dendrites, and an axon. The dendrites carry impulses toward the neuron's cell body. The axon carries impulses away from the cell body. Nerve impulses begin in a dendrite, move toward the cell body, and then move down the axon. A neuron can have many dendrites, but it has only one axon. An axon, however, can have more than one tip, so the impulse can go to more than one other cell.Axons and dendrites are sometimes called nerve fibers. Nerve fibers are often arranged in parallel bundles covered with connective tissue, something like a package of uncooked spaghetti wrapped in cellophane. A bundle of nerve fibers is called a nerve.
A threadlike genetic material called chromatin is located within the?
In the inter-phase nucleus of the cell is located a threadlike genetic material called chromatin.
What does threadlike fungi mean?
all fungi is threadlike because all fungi is made of tiny strings called hyphae.
What are cytoplasmic extensions that carry nerve impulses towards the cell body of a neuron?
The extension from a nerve cell that carries impulses toward the nerve is a dendrite
