actually we must say all neurons receive information. there are three types of neurons: 1.sensory neuron 2.motor neuron 3.relay neuron the sensory neurons receive information from receptor cells in sense organs and pass the information from sensory neuron to the other and pass the info to spinal cord where they are received by relay neuron. this neuron in turn passes the info to motor neurons which pass the info to cells in effectors and action is performed.relay neurons are messengers between sensory neuron and motor neuron in spinal cord.

What part of the neuron sends information to others?
Presynaptic neuron sends postsynaptic receives
Which structure in the neuron receives information from another nerve cell?
Its the synaptic cleft found at the end of the axon terminal.
What part of a neuron contains neurotransmitters?
Neurotransmitters are used to send messages from cell to cell, usually neuron to neuron. Neurotransmitters are released from the pre-synapse, which is at the axon terminus. These neurotransmitters are picked up by the post-synapse on the receiving cell. These post-synapses are located on structures called dendrites or on the cell body.
Which part of the neuron transmits information to other cells?
The end of one neuron, the presynaptic button, sends messages to other cells by releasing neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) into the synaptic cleft (a small space between two neurons). The other cell, whether it be a neuron, a muscle, a sweat gland, etc., will receive this message at the post synaptic membrane of its cell, and will respond accordingly.
The cell body of a neuron collects information from which structure?
The part of the neuron that picks up information and sends it to the cell body is the dendrite. Electrical stimulation is transmitted by upstream neurons onto dendrites, and the dendrites integrate and determine the extent to which action potentials are produced.

What type of cell sends and receives messages?
Neuron
What part is a neuron receives signals?
dendrite

What is the part of the neuron that normally receives stimuli called?
A Dendrite
What processes of a neuron that receives signals from other neurons?
dendrites
What part of neuron carries and receives info?
The part of the neuron that receives the majority of inputs is the dendritic tree. In most neurons its appearance is very similar to what a tree would look like in Autumn with no leaves. The part that carries information away and toward the dendrites of other cells is called the axon. There is only one axon per neuron and they can vary quite considerably in their length.
What component of the reflex arc determines the response to a stimulus?
The component that determines the response to a stimulus in a reflex arc is the interneuron. This neuron receives the sensory input from the sensory neuron, processes the information, and then sends signals to initiate the appropriate motor response via the motor neuron.
The cell body of a neuron collects information from which structure?
The part of the neuron that picks up information and sends it to the cell body is the dendrite. Electrical stimulation is transmitted by upstream neurons onto dendrites, and the dendrites integrate and determine the extent to which action potentials are produced.
What part of the of the neuron receives impulses?
receptors, typically on dendrites
