Solution

The correct option is A Axon
  • Dendrons are short, branched parts arising from cell body or cyton. Dendrons are many in number.
  • Neurolemma is the outermost nucleated cytoplasmic layer of Schwann cells. It surrounds the axon of the nerve cell.
  • Neurofibrils are long, thin, microscopic fibrils that run in every direction in the cell body and also extend in axon and dendrites.
  • Axon is a long, thin hair-like processes coming out of the cyton of a nerve cell.
Hence, option A is correct.
