  • 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.
