Question

The dendrites found at the end of axon are termed as ____

• A. Telodendrites
• B. Dendroprocesses
• C. Axolemma
• D. Axon Terminal

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Telodendrites

A neuron has a cell body anddendrites (dendritic zone) receive synaptic input from other neurons. The axon conducts excitation to distant sites. Terminal branches of the axon (telodendritic zone) transmit excitation via synapses onto other neurons or synapses within muscle or gland.
The Axolemma is the plasma membrane of an axon.
Neurotransmitters are packaged into synaptic vesicles that cluster beneath the axon terminal membrane on the presynaptic side of a synapse. The axonal terminals are specialized to release the electrical impulse of the presynaptic cell.
