Solution

The correct option is C
Neuron

Neurons are the basic units of the nervous system. Every neuron is made up of a cell body, also called a soma, dendrites and an axon. The basic purpose of a neuron is to receive incoming information and, based upon that information, send a signal to other neurons, muscles, or glands.
