The location of dendrite and axon:
If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar.
If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar.
If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
Neurons are grouped structurally according to the number of processes extending from their cell body.
Neurons are classified into different types based on their structure as follows: multipolar neurons with many dendrites and a single axon, bipolar neurons with one dendrite and one axon, and unipolar neurons with a single process extending from the cell body that branches into dendrites and an axon.
Neurons can be classified structurally as either multipolar, bipolar, or unipolar. Functionally, neurons can be classified as either sensory, motor, or interneurons based on their role in transmitting and processing sensory information, controlling motor movements, or connecting neurons within the central nervous system, respectively.
Biopolar multipolar unipolar
The giant multipolar neuron helps to coordinate movement and maintain muscle tone in invertebrates. It plays a key role in the coordination of activities within the nervous system and the conduction of nerve impulses along its large axon.
Neurons are grouped structurally according to the number of processes extending from their cell body.
The axon hillock is the anatomical region of a multipolar neuron that has the lowest threshold for generating an action potential. This is because it contains a high density of voltage-gated sodium channels, making it more excitable compared to the soma or dendrites.

Neurons with two processes are classified as bipolar neurons.
Biopolar multipolar unipolar
Multipolar neurons This is the most common type of neuron, with one axon and many dendrites. Multipolar neurons are so-named because they have many (multi-) processes that extend from the cell body: lots of dendrites plus a single axon. Functionally, these neurons are either motor (conducting impulses that will cause activity such as the contraction of muscles) or association (conducting impulses and permitting 'communication' between neurons within the central nervous system).
