Dendrites
recieving or input portion of a neuron.
Axon
An axon or nerve fiber, is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that conducts electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body or soma.
Cell body contains a
nucleus surrounded by the cytoplasma that includes typical organelles
Neuroglia
supports and protect neurons
5 main types of Neurons are
