Unipolar neurons are found in ganglion outside the CNS.
The most common type of neuron found in the central nervous system is the multipolar neuron. These neurons have many dendrites and a single axon extending from the cell body. Multipolar neurons are involved in processing and transmitting information in the brain and spinal cord.
Biopolar multipolar unipolar
Bipolar neurons have only one axon and one dendrite with the soma between them. There are probably very few, if any, neurons that contain only a single axon and dendrite. However, the concept is useful because some neurons behave as if they only had a single axon and dendrite. These neurons, called bipolar neurons because their cell body sits in between the axon and dendrite (giving the neuron two "poles"), are abundant in the nervous system. One very important type of bipolar neuron occurs in the retina, and is responsible for how we process light at an early level.
The giant multipolar neuron helps to coordinate movement and maintain muscle tone in invertebrates. It plays a key role in the coordination of activities within the nervous system and the conduction of nerve impulses along its large axon.
Giant multipolar neurons can be found in the central nervous system of vertebrates, particularly in the spinal cord and some parts of the brainstem. They are known for their large cell bodies and multiple dendritic projections that receive and integrate signals from other neurons.
Motor neurons and intern neurons
Multipolar neurons This is the most common type of neuron, with one axon and many dendrites. Multipolar neurons are so-named because they have many (multi-) processes that extend from the cell body: lots of dendrites plus a single axon. Functionally, these neurons are either motor (conducting impulses that will cause activity such as the contraction of muscles) or association (conducting impulses and permitting 'communication' between neurons within the central nervous system).
Unipolar, multipolar and pseudo-unipolar
The most common type of neuron found in the central nervous system is the multipolar neuron. These neurons have many dendrites and a single axon extending from the cell body. Multipolar neurons are involved in processing and transmitting information in the brain and spinal cord.

Giant multipolar neurons can be found in the central nervous system of vertebrates, particularly in the spinal cord and some parts of the brainstem. They are known for their large cell bodies and multiple dendritic projections that receive and integrate signals from other neurons.
Neurons are classified into different types based on their structure as follows: multipolar neurons with many dendrites and a single axon, bipolar neurons with one dendrite and one axon, and unipolar neurons with a single process extending from the cell body that branches into dendrites and an axon.
