Neuroscience

• Dendrites receive signals from other neurons and transmit them towards the cell body.
• Neurons consist of a cell body, dendrites, and an axon.
• The axon is responsible for transmitting electrical impulses away from the cell body to other cells or organs.
• Synapse formation involves the growth of dendritic spines on one neuron and the development of presynaptic terminals on another neuron.
• Neuronal communication occurs through synapses, which are specialized junctions between two neurons where neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft.
• Axons are long extensions that carry electrical impulses away from the cell body to other cells or organs.
• Axons are covered by myelin sheaths that insulate and speed up signal transmission.
