If a neuron were a tree, the trunk would represent the _____ and the small branch extensions would represent the _____.
A.dendrites; axon
B.axon; dendrites
C.dendrites; cell body

Respuesta :

B. axon; dendrites

The axon is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell that typically conducts electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body.

The dendrites are short branched extensions of a nerve cell, along which impulses received from other cells at synapses are transmitted to the cell body.
