about 10 dendrites
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
The receptor is the part of the neuron (usually a dendrite) that detects a stimulus. Dendrites are extensions of the main cellular body of the neuron called the soma; the impulse is passed on to another neuron at the other end, which is called the axon. Neurons transmit impulses to each other via electro-chemical connections to each other that are known as synapses.

In the central nervous system (CNS), oligodendrocytes are the cells responsible for wrapping cytoplasmic extensions around thick neuron fibers. These extensions form myelin sheaths, which insulate the axons and enhance the speed of electrical signal transmission. Each oligodendrocyte can myelinate multiple axons, contributing to the efficiency of neural communication within the CNS.
The basic unit of the central nervous system (CNS) is the neuron. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit electrical and chemical signals throughout the CNS, allowing for communication between different parts of the brain and spinal cord. Each neuron consists of a cell body, dendrites, and an axon, which together facilitate the processing and relay of information. Additionally, glial cells support and protect neurons, playing crucial roles in maintaining overall CNS function.
Afferent neurons receive and transmit impulses to the CNS.
they meet in the cns or relay naurone
Neurons meet and communicate with each other at junctions called synapses. At these synapses, they release and receive chemical neurotransmitters to transmit signals from one neuron to another.

Dendrites are extensions of the main cellular body of the neuron called the soma; the impulse is passed on to another neuron at the other end, which is called the axon.
