They are both part of a neuron. An Axon is long and slender, and a dendrite are the branched projections.

Axons and Dendrites are part of what kind of cell?

Neurons, of the nervous system. The dendrites receive impulses, and the axons send them to another neuron or an effector cell.


What do axons and dendrites belong to?

I'm assuming you're talking about dendrites... And the dendrites are what receive signals on a neuron. Signals are delivered through the axon to the axon terminal, which passes the signal to another neuron's dendrites.


Axons and dendrites is another word for?

Axons are the output element of a neuron, and dendrites are the input elements of a neuron.


Where is the dendrites located at?

dendrites are located at the nerves together with axons.


What are the two kinds of branches that extend from the cell body of a neuron what does each do?

The ones carrying the input are the dendrites, the ones carrying the output are the axons.


Axons and dendrites?

Axons are responsible for transmitting electrical signals away from the neuron cell body. Dendrites, on the other hand, receive incoming signals from axons of other neurons. Together, axons and dendrites play a crucial role in the communication between neurons in the nervous system.


What are the processes of the system?

dendrites and axons


How are axons and dendrites alike?

Axons and dendrites are both extensions of a neuron. They are involved in transmitting electrical signals within the nervous system. Axons carry signals away from the cell body, while dendrites receive signals from other neurons.


Are axons and dendrites found in connectivity tissue?

No, axons and dendrites are not found in connective tissue; they are components of neurons, which are part of the nervous system. Axons transmit electrical impulses away from the neuron, while dendrites receive signals from other neurons. Connective tissue serves to support, bind, and protect other tissues and organs but does not contain neurons or their processes.


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.
