  • Most neurons have three parts: a cell body, dendrites and axon.
  • Neurons show a great diversity in size and shape, and are classified on the basis of structure and function.

  • Multipolar neurons are the most common type of neurons in the brain and spinal cord and have several dendritic processes and one axon.
  • Bipolar neurons  are found in retina of the eye, in the inner ear and in the olfactory area of the brain and are characterized by one dendrite and one axon.
  • Uni-polar neurons have single processes extending from the cell body which divide into two branches.

On the basis of function neurons are classified as; sensory, motor and association neurons.
