First of all, the most common type of CNS neuron is the multipolar neuron meaning it has many dendrites and dendritic branches, a cell body or soma, and a single axon. The information flow through this neurons starting from receiving multiple impulses from multiple synapses since this kind of neurons has many dendrites. The signal will then flow in an anterograde manner meaning the multiple signals will flow towards the cell body or the soma to be integrated. Next is that the integrated signal will flow to the neuron's axon to be transmitted to other neurons.
