Are axons most located and protected within the CNS?
axons
Do axons receive impulses toward the body cells?
No, axons transmit impulses away from the body cells. Dendrites receive impulses from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body, and then the axon carries the impulse away from the cell body to other neurons or to muscles or glands.
Axons that are much slower than axons coated with 19 down?
i have the same crossword right in front of me! its demyelinated
The axons of the retina culminate in what nerve?
the axons of the retina culminate in the optic nerve which forms a blind spot on the retina
When your hit in the head do you damage the neurons in your brain or the axons?
When you are hit in the head, both neurons and axons can sustain damage. Neurons are the specialized cells responsible for transmitting electrical signals in the brain, while axons are long, slender projections that extend from neurons and transmit those signals to other neurons or tissues. Impact to the head can cause direct damage to neurons and axons, leading to functional impairment or cell death.
What are the long arms of neurons called?
axons
What are the parts of neuron and its function?
The three main parts of a neuron are the soma (cell body), the axons, the long trailing output of a neuron and the dendrite or dendritic tree. Almost all neurons have axons, but not all axons have a dendritic tree.

What carries messages from the cell body of a neuron?
Remember: Axons away, so dendrites carry messages from the cell, and axons carry them away.
Why do you think axons are long?
Because they have to reach from the base of the spine to the end of the foot.
Are axons most located and protected within the CNS?
axons
What binds axons and blood vessels together?
The long and connected part.
Can a neuron have multiple axons?
No, each neuron has only one axon, but has multiple dendrites so it can receive information from multiple axons from other multiple neurons.
What does Axons transmit?
Axons are nerve fibers which extend as long, slender projections from nerve cells. They transmit electrical and electrochemical signals across the gap at a junction(synapse) between them and the other cell.
Can oligodendrocytes myelinate several axons?
yes TRUE
What axons do nerves contain?
Nerves are like trees. The have branches call axons.
Where do axons from the olfactory nerve project to?
Axons from the olfactory nerve project directly to the
