In general, but not always, dendrites receive neurochemical information from neurotransmitters released by axons.
Dendrites are branched extensions of the neuronal cell body, or soma, that receive information from other neurons. The dendrite is the post-synaptic portion of many synapses within the nervous system that contains synaptic receptors that bind to neurotransmitters and respond by excitation or inhibition of the membrane potential.

Neurons are categorized by?
Structure Unipolar Bipolar Multipolar AND FUNCTION sensory or afferent neurons Motor or efferent neurons
What is. The function of associative neurons?
The neurons form the bodies nervous system.
Neurons that function within the brain and spinal cord are called?
interneurons also called central or association neurons
What are the names of the cells in your brain?
The main types of cells in the brain are neurons, which transmit information, and glial cells, which support and protect neurons. Neurons are further classified into various types based on their structure and function, such as sensory neurons, motor neurons, and interneurons.
Neurons are classified by the?
Neurons are classified by their structure and function. Structurally, neurons can be categorized as sensory neurons, motor neurons, or interneurons. Functionally, neurons can be classified as excitatory or inhibitory based on the type of signals they transmit.
What is the primary function of neurons in the kidney?
what is the primary function of nipple runs in the kidney
Function of neurotransmitter?
To transmit a signal between neurons.
Do neurons require oxygen to function properly?
Yes, neurons require oxygen to function properly. Oxygen is essential for the production of energy in neurons through a process called cellular respiration. Without enough oxygen, neurons can become damaged and may not be able to communicate effectively with other cells in the brain.
What is the shape of the Sensory neurons?
The sensory neurons in our body have different shapes but most are unipolar-shaped. Neurons can either be unipolar-, bipolar- or multiparty-shaped depending on their function.
What function do the motor neurons play in the nervous system?
Motor neurons send messages from the brain or spinal cord to the body.
The basic units of structure and function of the nervous system are?
neurons
The basic units of structure and function of the nervous system?
