A Revision of Neuron -

Based on the number of axon and dendrites, the neurons are divided into three types:

             - multipolar (with one axon and two or more dendrites; found in the cerebral cortex)
             - bipolar (with one axon and one dendrite, found in the retina of the eye) 
             - unipolar (cell body with one axon only; usually found in the embryonic stage)

- Hence, the correct option is c. multipolar
