Both the assertion and the reason are true. Dendrites are long, thin extensions that branch out from the soma and are responsible for receiving incoming signals from other neurons. The branching structure of dendrites allows them to receive signals from multiple sources, and these signals are then integrated by the neuron to determine whether or not to fire an action potential.
