What determines the number of dendrites and axons an association neuron grows to connect with other neurons?
SOMA
What else can I help you with?
What is the interneurons also known as?
Interneurons are also known as association neurons because they connect sensory neurons to motor neurons and help to integrate information within the central nervous system.
Do axons carry messages received by the dendrites to other neurons?
Yes! The axon carries messages received by the dendrites to other neurons.
The cytoplasmic extensions that provide the main receptive surfaces for neurons are what?
The cytoplasmic extensions that provide the main receptive surfaces for neurons are called dendrites. Dendrites receive input from other neurons and transmit this information towards the cell body.
The cerebral cortex is the:a.gray matter, the axons and dendrites of neuronsb.gray matter, the cell bodies of neurons?
A.) The grey matter, the axons and dendrites of neurons.
What are the short fibers that extend from the neuron called?
The short fibers that extend from a neuron are called dendrites. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them to the cell body of the neuron.
What do dendrites do for the neuron?
Dendrites receive inputs from other neurons, via synapses.
What is false about neurons?
this is not true about neurons: dendrites carry information away from the cell body
Structure neurons that receives electrical signals?
Dendrites
What is the structure of neuron?
The simplest answer is: dendrites, soma, axon.Neurons have inputs called dendrites, a cell body called a soma, a portion of the soma called the axon hillock which determines whether or not a sufficiently strong impulse has reached it to fire the neuron, an axon which is the output of the neuron, axon terminals which contain vesicles of neurotransmitters, ending at a synapse which is comprised of the axon terminals, a gap called the synaptic cleft, and the dendrites of the next neuron.Neurons - are the basic building blocks of the nervous system. These specialized cells are the information-processing units of the brain responsible for receiving and transmitting information. Each part of the neuron plays a role in the communication of information throughout the body
What is the function of the dentrites?
Dendrites are attaches to the axon terminals of other neurons. The nerve impulse travel from other neurons into the corresponding neuron via dendrites.
Dentrites are branching extensions of?
Dendrites are branching extensions of neurons that receive signals from other neurons. They play a crucial role in transmitting electrical impulses toward the cell body, facilitating communication within the nervous system. By increasing the surface area of the neuron, dendrites enhance its ability to connect with multiple synapses and integrate information.
Does association neurons connect to other neurons?
Yes they do. See, otherwise it wouldn't be an interneuron (its proper name) or have anything to 'associate' with. They relay signals along networks.
