Question

Neuron is different from the muscle, due to the presence of:

• A. Alternate dark and light bands
• B. Contractile proteins
• C. Both A and B
• D. Dendrites

Answer 1

The correct option is D Dendrites

Alternate light and dark bands are present only in skeletal muscles. Muscles contain special proteins called contractile proteins. Dendrites are the short cytoplasmic extensions of the cell body of a neuron, which receive stimulus from other neurons. Dendrites are part of a nerve fibre, not a muscle fibre.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
