They are neurons with only one neurite. A neurite refers to any projection from the cell body, such as an axon or a dendrite!

What are the two types of nervous tissue?
neurons (brain cells) & neuroglia (support)---------------------------------------------------Multipolar Neurons (3+ processes) They are the most common neuron type in humans (more than 99% of neurons belong to this class) and the major neuron type in the CNS Bipolar Neurons Bipolar neurons are spindle-shaped, with a dendrite at one end and an axon at the other . An example can be found in the light-sensitive retina of the eye. Unipolar Neurons Sensory neurons have only a single process or fibre which divides close to the cell body into two main branches (axon and dendrite). Because of their structure they are often referred to as unipolar neurons.
Is the sensory neuron multipolar?
No, they (sensory neurons) are either pseudounipolar or bipolar.To memorize, remember the word "M" for Multi-unipolar, and "M" for "Motor" (fibres).
Sensory neurons of the PNS are?
Unipolar Sensory Neurons: large myelinated neurons with the cell body off to one side of the single dendritic-axon process. Multipolar Motor Neurons: large myelinated neurons that have many dendrites off the cell body and an axon that may branch to effect many effectors.
What type of neuron is found in the dorsal root ganglion?
Sensory. Large diameter sensory neurons populate the medial division of the DRG and convey information regarding proprioception, localized touch, and vibration. In the lateral part of the DRG, small diameter sensory neurons conveying information about pain and temperature.
What determine whether a neuron is unipolar bipolar multipolar?
The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
Which of these neuron types are unipolar?
which of these neurons types is are unipolar
Dendrites found on unipolar neurons are part of what?
They are sensory neurons. :)
What is the shape of the Sensory neurons?
The sensory neurons in our body have different shapes but most are unipolar-shaped. Neurons can either be unipolar-, bipolar- or multiparty-shaped depending on their function.
Indentify the three kinds of neurons that are found in the nervous system?
Unipolar, multipolar and pseudo-unipolar
What are Structural classification neurons?
Biopolar multipolar unipolar
What is the shape of the sensory neuron?
The sensory neurons in our body have different shapes but most are unipolar-shaped. Neurons can either be unipolar-, bipolar- or multiparty-shaped depending on their function.
Neurons are categorized by?
Structure Unipolar Bipolar Multipolar AND FUNCTION sensory or afferent neurons Motor or efferent neurons
Does the ganglia contain sensory neurons?
Yes, the PNS ganglia contains unipolar sensory neurons.
Where are Multipolar neurons found?
Unipolar neurons are found in ganglion outside the CNS.
What type of neurons form the afferent division of the PNS?
unipolar
Do unipolar neurons have a single short process that is an axon?
True
Neurons are classified on the basis of their structure as?
Anaxonic, unipolar, bipolar or multipolar
