Label the parts of a neuron in Figure 7.5.
a) Dendrites- These are the branch-like structures that receive messages from other neurons and help in the transmission of impulses to the cell body.
b) Cellbody- It is also called soma. It is a star-shaped structure with a nucleus, Golgi body, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria etc.
c) Axon- It is a tube-like structure that carries electrical impulses from the cell body to the axon terminals that pass the impulse to another neuron.
d) Axon terminal- It is the end of an axon that helps in the transmission of electrical impulses to the dendrites of another neuron.
