Question

Which among the following is the correct sequence regarding the flow of impulse in a neuron?

• A. $Dendrite\to Axon\to Cellbody$
• B. $Axon\to Cellbody\to Dendrite$
• C. $Axon\to Dendrite\to Cellbody$
• D. $Cellbody\to Axon\to Nerveterminal$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $Cellbody\to Axon\to Nerveterminal$

The impulse is generated and transmitted through the nerve cells. The impulse is received by the dendrites and then passed to the cell body. From the cell body, the impulse flows through the axon and then reach the nerve terminal. Through the synaptic junction, the impulse is then transferred to the next neuron.

The correct sequence of impulse travel through neuron is cell body to axon to nerve terminal.

Thus, the correct answer is 'Cell body-Axon-Nerve terminal'.
