What are the parts of the neuron that the messages travels through?

The message travels through the axon and Schwann cells (which make up the axon) as an electrical message. When it reaches the dendrite, it is converted into a chemical message where it can be picked up by another neuron.


Where does the axons carry messages toward?

Axons carry messages (action potentials) away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands. They transmit information from one neuron to another, enabling communication within the nervous system.


Processes that carry impulses to another neuron?

The functional and structural unit of the nervous system for fast communication are called neurons. A neuron is made of cell body with extensions which are the axons and dendrites that carry impulses.
