Answer:

A neuron that has only one axon but several dendrites is classified as:

a. multipolar neuron.

Explanation:

  • The neurons are the fundamental unit of the nervous system.
  • The nervous system consist of only two types of cell; neurons and neuroglia.
  • Neurons are specialized to respond to physical and chemical stimuli, conduct nerve impulse and release neurotransmitter , while the neuroglia supports , nourish and protect the neuron.
  • 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.

On the Basis of structure the neurons are classified as: unipolar, bipolar and multipolar. (Multidendritic neurons are studied in <em>Drosophilla </em>and are reported to be a result of misexpressed<em> gene</em>)..

  • 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.

Explain how body symmetry is related to the phylogeny of animals.
Blizzard [7]

Do not worry so much about the why of classification. Classification is important because it is a lens through which to see what is there. It is not intrinsically true in and of itself. Distinctions are important only as vehicles for a common base of communication. All things have symmetry. A reflection has symmetry. Symmetry means organized life. Organized life is what happens when RNA replicates. It is the difference between chaos and order
