These are also called multipolar neurons and they allow for the integration of a great deal of information from other neurons.
Neurons with one dendrite = only capable of 1 signal. Neurons with more than one dendrite = more signals and more accesible to different parts of the body.
the longest dendrite is I don't know this /;[
When a message gets sent to a neuron from the dendrite it goes through the cell body to the tip of the dendrite where it leaps to the next dendrite.
The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.

Dendrite
The nervous system gathers information from the external environment, stores and processes it, and initiates the appropriate responses.__________________________________excuse me, i think he / she wasn't asking about what the nervous system is but what isThe functional unit of the nervous system is the neuron.
