  • In a neuron, conversion of electrical signal to a chemical signal occurs at/in (a) cell body (b) axonal end (c) dendritic end (d) axon

In a neuron, the conversion of an electrical signal to a chemical signal occurs in
(a) cell body
(b) axonal end
(c) dendritic end
(d) axon

Answers (1)

Explanation:

The signals are transferred from one neuron to another with the help of a synapse. The electrical signals are very fast as compared to that of chemical signals. At the axonal end, the electrical signal is converted into a chemical signal with the help of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters that are received by the receptors present on the dendrites of another neuron. Hence, (b) is the correct option.
