Want this question answered?
Its main function is to propagate the action potential (the 'impulse') along the length of the axon.
the function of the neuron's axon is to carry messages to other cells
The cell body, called the SOMA, is the main part of the neuron. It is the main metabolic center or region of the neuron. The neuron has 3 parts: DENDRITES (inputs), SOMA (cell body), and AXON (output). The axon is the part which FIRES when sufficient inputs reach it at the axon hillock.
Myelin is a lipid which surrounds the axon and provides for faster and more complex neural conduction.
dendrites -Apex

so like......what is going on here?.........!I'm the one asking the question here,hello!?!?What is the main function of zinc?
It depends on what you mean by 'main'. The AXON is the part which CONVEYS the neural impulse, which could be thought of as the main FUNCTION of the neuron. But the DENDRITES are the parts which assess whether the neuron has been stimulated enough to fire the axon, which is another fundamental function of some neurons. And the BODY (soma) of the neuron is very much a 'main' part of the neuron, because without it the neuron would die.
Dendrites, Axon, Axon Terminal, and Cell Body
the function of the neuron's axon is to carry messages to other cells
The nerve axon is the main nerve from where the dendrites originate.
A neuron has three basic parts, the cell body, the axon, and the dendrites.For more info, see the related link below.
Axon, nucleus, and dendrite
The three main parts of a neuron are the dendrites, the axon, and the soma. The dendrites are the nerve endings, the axon is the body, and the soma is the cell body.
Axon, nucleus, and dendrite
Example: int main (void) { puts ("Here is a function definition"); return 0; }
The three main parts of a nueron are: the dendrites, the axon, and the cell body.
