Explain the structure of neuron with the help of labelled diagram
Answers
Answer:
Structure of Neurons
Cell Body - contains nucleus and organelles
Dendrites - receive input
Axon - conducts impulses away from the cell body
Axon hillock - an enlarged region where an axon attaches to the cell body
Synaptic terminal - Neurotransmitters are manufactured in the cell body but released from synaptic terminals. The neurotransmitters stimulate other neurons.
Synapse - A synapse is the junction between the synaptic terminal and another cell. The other cell is called a postsynaptic cell.

Neuron
The nerve cells
Structure of Neuron
(Refer to attachment)
Dendrites:
Branched,Short processes which reviece nerve impulses from other neuron
Cyton:
»Cell Body of a neuron,they consist of a nucleus and cytoplasm
»Regulation of impulses is done here,the weak impulses aren't processed further to the axon
Axon:
Longest part of the neuron,it is responsible for transportation of nuerons
Axon Terminals:
Bulb like structures present on the endings of nuerons,they aid in passing impulses from one neuron to the other
Synapse:
The space between two neurons
Sheath:
Neurons can be sheathed or non sheathed. Sheathing is an insulation around the axon and it also determines the rate at which impulses travel
