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 is the function of the neuron part that picks up signals from other neurons?

The function of the neuron part that picks up signals from other neurons is to receive and integrate incoming signals, allowing the neuron to communicate with other neurons and process information. This part is called the dendrite.


What is a part of a neuron that receives messages?

The dendrites are the part of a neuron that receives messages from other neurons. They receive chemical signals from neighboring neurons and transmit the information to the cell body.


Part of neuron that sends message through the neuron?

The dendrites are the "input" portion of the neuron, collecting signals from other neurons. However, the axon is the "output" portion of the neuron, sending signals to other neurons.

The part of the neuron that has branched extensions that are specialized to receive information are the?

dendrites. Dendrites are specialized structures on a neuron that receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body. They play a crucial role in integrating information from multiple sources to determine the neuron's response.


Which part of a neuron is usually involved in receiving information from other neurons?

"dendrite"
