Vedclass · Answer

(B) neuron consists of three main parts: the cell body (cyton),dendrites,and the axon.$1$. Dendrites are short,highly branched projections that receive signals from other neurons.$2$. The axon is a long,single fiber that carries impulses away from the cell body.$3$. The terminal end of the axon is branched into synaptic knobs,but the dendrites are characterized by being highly branched and distributed around the cell body to increase the surface area for signal reception.Therefore,dendrites are the highly branched structures.
