The function of a neuron is to transfer messages throughout the brain. These neurons are all attached and interpret everything that happens.
This is just terminology. Neuron = 'nerve cell'
The dendrites receive the data or signal from another neuron for the soma.
potassuimaxon terminals transmit info from their neuron to another, while dendrites receive info from other neurons.
The part of the neuron that acts as a receiver for nerve impulses is the dendrites. Dendrites are branching extensions of the neuron that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them toward the cell body. They play a crucial role in processing and integrating incoming information before it is relayed along the axon.
The soma, also known as the cell body, is located in the center of a neuron. It contains the nucleus and other organelles essential for the neuron's function.
transmission of nerve impulses from the sensory neuron to the motor neuron,located in the central nervous system.
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.

The structure of a neuron is similar to a telephone wire in that both facilitate the transmission of signals over distances. Neurons have axons that act like insulated wires, conducting electrical impulses (action potentials) away from the cell body, while telephone wires carry electrical signals to transmit voice and data. Additionally, the myelin sheath surrounding some axons functions like insulation, enhancing signal speed and efficiency, similar to how insulation protects and improves the performance of telephone wires. Both systems rely on effective signal transmission for communication.
The primary unit of function in nervous tissue is the neuron. Neurons are specialized cells that process and transmit information through electrical and chemical signals. They form complex networks that allow for communication within the nervous system.
