Question

Difference between the dendrites and axons.

Answer 1

Dendrites are a short branched extension of nerve cell whereas axons are long thread-like part of the nerve cell.

Dendrites bring information to the cell body and axons take information away from the cell body.

Dendrites receive neuron signal and axons transmit them.

Dendrites are non- myelinated whereas axons are either myelinated or non- myelinated.
