Which structure in a neuron helps to conduct a nerve impulses towards the cell body and away from the cell body
Open in App
Solution
- Dendrites in a neuron helps to conduct a nerve impulse towards cell body.
- Dendrites are the branched projections of a neuron that act to propagate theelectrochemical stimulation received from other neural cells to the cell body, or soma, of the neuron from which the dendrites project.
- Electrical stimulation is transmitted onto dendrites by upstream neurons (usually their axons) via synapses which are located at various points throughout the dendritic tree. Dendrites play a critical role in integrating these synaptic inputs and in determining the extent to which action potentials are produced by the neuron
