Solution

The correct option is A
Lobe

Neurons (nerve cells) have a central cell body or soma, which carries out the basic processes in neurons. In addition to this, there are dendrites, axons and axon terminals, that carry out the functions of communication and transmission of signals. There are also the Schwann cells that cover the axon. There's no part known as a lobe in a neuron.
