A very basic explanation would say that axons are the structures of neurons that conduct electrical impulses ("messages") away from the cell body, and that dendrites are the structures of neurons that conduct electrical impulses toward the cell body.
Dendrites receive incoming information from axon terminals.
The three main structures of a neuron are the cell body (soma), dendrites, and axon. The cell body contains the nucleus and other organelles, the dendrites receive signals from other neurons, and the axon transmits signals to other neurons or cells.
Dendrites are extensions of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons and transmit those signals to the cell body. They play a crucial role in integrating incoming information and facilitating communication between different neurons in the nervous system.
Dendrites are attaches to the axon terminals of other neurons. The nerve impulse travel from other neurons into the corresponding neuron via dendrites.
Dendrites receive incoming information from axon terminals.
An idealized neuron has dendrites shown on top and axon at the bottom. They are used in artificial nets to model brain function.
An axon sends signal from dendrites to terminals to release neurotransmitters
An axon hillock is part of a neuron that acts as a bridge between the cell body and the axon. Electrical impulses from the dendrites and cell body are summed at this point, which is then sent down the axon.
The three main parts of a nueron are: the dendrites, the axon, and the cell body.
