The long process of a neuron is called the?
Axon
The single long strand that comes out of the other side of the cell body is called the?

What is the long trunk of a neuron called?
The long trunk of a neuron is called an axon. The axon is responsible for conducting electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands.
Which region of the cell body from which the axon originates?
The axon originates from the axon hillock, a specialized region of the cell body that connects to the initial segment of the axon. This area is important for integrating incoming signals and deciding whether to generate an action potential.
A long structure leaving the cell body that action potential travel along is called the?
It is the Axon
What does the axon bulb do?
It starts the transmission of a neural signal from one neuron to another.An axon ends in an axon terminal, which ends in a small rounded tip called the axon bulb. Each terminal lies very close to either a dendrite or a cell body of another neuron, and the combination of the end of the first neuron, the beginning of the next, and the space between them is known as a synapse; when a neural impulse reaches the axon bulb, it is stimulated to release chemical messengers called neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft (gap), which diffuse over to the second neuron, conveying the signal to the second neuron.
The long process of a neuron is called the?
Axon
What portion of a neuron should be called its secretory component?
Axon/Axon terminals

What is the long trunk of a neuron called?
The long trunk of a neuron is called an axon. The axon is responsible for conducting electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands.
What does an axon end in?
An axon typically ends in small branches called axon terminals. These terminals are responsible for transmitting signals to other neurons or muscle cells through structures called synapses.
The axon of each motor neuron has numerous endings are called what?
The tip of a neuron's axon culminates in several endings call terminal buttons. When an action potential is conducted down the axon, this is where it goes.
Why was the squid axon particularly appropriate for nerve research?
The squid axon is the largest axon known in the whole animal kingdom, the axon of the squid is also very much like humans and most mammal axon, thus making is an ideal axon to use during research
Which region of the cell body from which the axon originates?
The axon originates from the axon hillock, a specialized region of the cell body that connects to the initial segment of the axon. This area is important for integrating incoming signals and deciding whether to generate an action potential.
Is and axon bulb and an axon hillock the same thing?
axon hillock = where cell body meets the axon axon bulb = end of the axon...lies very close to the dendrites of another neuron so impulses can pass over the synapse. AP Biology student *
