An axon is the long extension of a nerve cell body. The dendrites are the short branches.

A nerve cell, or neuron, is long and branching.
You are speaking of the 12 cranial nerves:I. Olfactory nerve which branches out of the telencephalonII. Optic which branches out of the diencephalonIII. Oculomotor nerve which branches out of the mesencephalonIV. Trochlear nerve nerve which branches out of the mesencephalonV. Trigeminal nerve which branches out of the ponsVI. Abducens nerve which branches out of the ponsVII. Facial nerve which branches out of the ponsVIII. Vestibulochochlear nerve which branches out of the ponsIX. Glossopharangeal nerve nerve which branches out of the medullaX. Vagus nerve nerve which branches out of the medullaXI. Accessory nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla & cervical spineXII. Hypoglossal nerve nerve which branches out of the medulla
An axon is the long extension of a nerve cell body. The dendrites are the short branches.
It recieves the chemical signal from the terminal branches of a nearby neuron and sends it down the axon
Yes, nerve cells have many connecting side branches called dendrites which receive signals from other nerve cells. These signals are then transmitted through the cell body and down the axon to pass on information to other cells.
The two branches of the sciatic nerve are the tibial nerve and the common fibular (peroneal) nerve. The tibial nerve supplies the posterior compartment of the leg, while the common fibular nerve innervates the anterior and lateral compartments of the leg and the muscles of the foot.
There are several nerve branches in the spinal column. The most popular being the sciatic nerve which branches of the lumbar spine into the legs.
An axite is any of the terminal branches of an axon. (An axon is a usually long and single nerve-cell process that usually conducts impulses away from the cell body.
The two kinds of branches that extend from the cell body of a neuron are dendrites and axons. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body, while axons transmit signals away from the cell body to other neurons or target cells.
