Cell Body–Each neuron has a cell body with a nucleus, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and other components.
Axon–Axon is a tube-like structure that functions by carrying an electrical impulse from the cell body to the axon terminals for passing the impulse to another neuron.
Synapse– This structure functions by permitting the entry of a neuron to move an electrical or chemical signal from one neuron to another neuron.
