Answer:

Cerebral cortex of the Cerebrum

Explanation:

The body directs our body's internal functions. These functions are made possible by four major regions of the brain viz: The Cerebrum, Diencephalon, Cerebellum and Brain stem.

The Cerebrum is the largest brain structure, making up most of the total brain, and a part of the forebrain. The cerebrum's prominent outer portion, the cerebral cortex, not only processes sensory and motor information but also enables CONSCIOUSNESS (our ability to consider ourselves and the outside world), thoughts, emotion, reasoning and memory.

The cerebral cortex is composed of the right and left hemispheres joined by the corpus callosum. Each cerebral hemisphere can be subdivided into four lobes (Frontal, Parietal, Temporal, and Occipital) associated with different functions.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

It is because the axons that fail to find a target cell die thats why every axon in an adult mammal has a target cell (muscle cell or other neuron) with which it makes synaptic contact.

Explanation:

Synapse is basically a structure in the nervous system responsible for the passage of the electrical and the chemical signals from one neuron to another neuron or an effector cell.

Usually the axon is the presynaptic part of the synapse and the postsynaptic part is usually present on the body of the neuron or a dendrite or an effector cell like a muscle cell.

If the axon doesn't make a synaptic contact with the target cell , the axon will die because the neurotransmitters and the chemical mediators will not be released and no action will result on the postsynaptic membrane.
