Question

Differentiate between anice and dendricle

Answer 1

Neurons or nerve cells are the structural and functional units of nervous system. A typical neuron has three components: cell body  or cyton, dendrons or dendrites and axon. 

Cell body is the broader, round polygonal or stellate part which contains nucleus and various cell organelles.  Cell body bears shot branched process called dendrites. Dendrites possess Nissl granules, neurofibrils, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and Golgi vesicles. 

Dendrites transmit impulses from synapses to the cell body. 

Axon is long process which develops from a conical prolongation of cyton called axon hillock. Cytoplasm of axon called axoplasm. It is devoid of Nissl granules and Golgi components. Axon branched distantly. Axon carries the impulse away from the cell body.
