Question

The portion of the neuron that conducts electrical impulses to the dendrites of other neurons is called the

Axon

Synapse

Dendrite

Receptor

Answer 1

Option A:- Incorrect

Reason: Axon is the tube-like portion of the neuron that carrier impulse.signals from soma to the axon terminal. The axon terminal then passes the impulse to the dendrite of another neuron via the release of neurotransmitters by synapsis.

Option B:- CORRECT

Reason:-It is also called neuronal junction. It transmits the electrical signals from one neuron to the dendrite of the next neuron.

Option C:-Incorrect

Reason:- Dendrite is the branch-like projection of neuron that receives information from the previous neuron.

Option D:- Incorrect

Reason:- Receptors are present in the postsynaptic cleft.
