C- Protects and insulates the axon
D- Conveys electric signal across a long distance
E- Passes electrical signals to other neurons
Explanation:
A. The "A" part in the image refers to "dendrites" which function to receive signal from other neurons.
B. The "B" part refers to "soma" which contain the nucleus and other cell organelles.
C. The "C" part refers to "Myelin sheath" that protects and insulates the axon.
D. The "D" part refers to "Axon" which is responsible for conveying electric signal across a long distance.
E. The "E" part refers to "Axon terminal" which is responsible for passing or transferring the elecrtic signals to other neurons and dendrites of other neurons receive the signals and the process goes on.
Hence, the match of fucntion with the correct part of neuron is as following:
A- Receives signal from other neurons
B- Contain the nucleus and cell organelles
C- Protects and insulates the axon
D- Conveys electric signal across a long distance
E- Passes electrical signals to other neurons
