Neurites- 

  • The neuron processes are of two types i.e. axon and dendrites.
  • Axon is a single, long process arising from the cell body. 
  • The area in cell body from which axon arises is called axon hillock. It is the most sensitive part of the neuron.
  • Axon contains neurofibrils but lack Nissl’s granules. 
  • The cell membrane of axon is called axolemma and its cytoplasm is called axoplasm. 
  • Axon ends in a group of branches the axon endings or axon terminals.
  • The axon terminals join with the dendrites of neighbouring neurons to form a synapse. 
  • The axons conduct nerve impulses away from the cell body and are called efferent processes.

Synapses are the junctions between two neurons. They store all the possible types of chemicals responsible for controlling the impulse transmission.
