What organs are associated with the neuron cell?

A neuron is basically associated with pretty much everything, as the neuron is in the brain and it is a nerve cell so it is what carries the electrical impulses like pain and the feeling sensation.


The tree like structures on a neuron are called?

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.

What is the flow of information in a spinal reflex arc in the correct order?

The reflex arc includes the sensory neuron (sensory intake) to the motor neuron (motor response). This two neuron arc is the fastest. Many times an interneuron at the level of the spinal cord is involved. It passes information to the brain more slowly. It is like an "incident report".
