The dendrites is the the ends of neuron cells. Neurons are located all over the body and all have dendrites at the end of them. Dendrites receive nerve signals are the body to let the brain know how what is the body feeling and how it should react.

What receives neuron messages and sends them to the cell body?

The dendrite receives a stimulus and conducts the nerve impulse toward the cell body.


How does a message travel through a single neuron?

When a message gets sent to a neuron from the dendrite it goes through the cell body to the tip of the dendrite where it leaps to the next dendrite.


The part of the neuron that carries impulses to the neuron cell body is the?

dendrite. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit these signals to the cell body for processing.

What is an antonym for dendrite?

An antonym for dendrite is "axon". Axons are the long fibers of a neuron that transmit electrical impulses away from the cell body, while dendrites receive information and conduct it towards the cell body.


Conducts electrical currents towards the cell body?

The dendrite conducts electrical currents towards the cell body. The axon terminal on the other hand conducts impulses away from the cell body.

Part of the nerve cell that first receives the nervous impulse is the?

The dendrite of a neuron usually receives a chemical signal from another neuron, although a cell body (soma), or sometimes even an axon, of another neuron can receive the signal.Synapses which occur between an axon and a dendrite are called axodendritic synapses, while synapses between an axon and a cell body are called axosomatic synapses, and synapses between an axon and an axon are called axoaxonic synapses.


What is the space between the transmitting axon and the receiving dendrite or cell body?
