Question

Neural proteins are mainly synthesized in__________

• A. Cell body of neuron
• B. Axon
• C. Dendrites
• D. Synapses

Answer 1

The correct option is C Dendrites

• The human body is made up of trillions of cells. Cells of the nervous system called nerve cells or neurons, are specialized to carry "messages" through an electrochemical process. Neurons carry out basic cellular processes such as protein synthesis and energy production.
• Protein synthesis in the extensions of nerve cells, called dendrites, Local protein synthesis in dendrites, not in the cell body of nerves, provides the ability to respond rapidly and selectively to external stimuli.

So the answer is 'Dendrites'.
