Where would the greatest number of chloroplast be found in the leaf?

The most chloroplast would be found in the main part of the vain in a leaf. Known as the pistil.


Dendrites found on unipolar neurons are part of what?

Dendrites found on unipolar neurons are part of the sensory receptor that detects stimuli such as touch, pressure, vibration, and temperature. They transmit this sensory information to the neuron's cell body, which then processes and transmits the signal to the central nervous system.


Where is the visceral sensory nerves located?

Visceral sensory nerves are primarily located within the autonomic nervous system, specifically in the peripheral nervous system. They originate from sensory receptors found in internal organs, such as the heart, lungs, and digestive tract. These nerves transmit sensory information about visceral functions, including pain, stretch, and chemical changes, to the central nervous system. The cell bodies of these sensory neurons are typically found in the dorsal root ganglia or in cranial nerve ganglia.


What are some collections of nerve cell bodies found in a small number of locations outside the central nervous system are called?

Ganglia. Ganglia are collections of nerve cell bodies found outside the central nervous system, typically located along the peripheral nerves. They can be sensory ganglia (containing cell bodies of sensory neurons) or autonomic ganglia (containing cell bodies of autonomic neurons).


Cell bodies of sensory neurons are found where?

Cell bodies of sensory neurons are typically found in ganglia outside the central nervous system. This allows them to receive and transmit sensory information from various parts of the body to the central nervous system for processing.
