Solution

The correct option is B A-Dendrites, B-Cyton, C-Schwann cell, D-Node of Ranvier, E-Synaptic Knob
Solution: B.
Neurons vary in shape, size and structure according to their location and function. Nearly all neurons have three parts namely: cell body, axon and dendrites. Some axons are covered with myelin sheath i.e. insulated fatty substance, which is formed by Schwann cells.
