Answer:

d. dendrites; axon

Explanation:

The structure of a neuron contains the stem-like structure at one end, the cell body contains the nucleus and the long tube-like structure covered with a myelin sheath called axons.

The axons carry the signal away from the cell body in sensory neurons and the dendrites carry the information towards the cell body.

The signals are transmitted in the form of electrical signals which gets converted into the chemical signal at the synaptic junction through the neurotransmitters released by the synaptic knobs.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.

GalinKa [24]

The science of Cancer Biology focuses on the study of the different mechanisms and fundamental process of cell growth, the transformation of normal to cancer cells, and the metastasis or spread of these cancer cells to other parts of the body.  


As such, it includes the study of how tumor cells develop and grow. It also includes studying how the immune system responds to cancer cells, thus including macrophages and their response to the presence of pathogens and cancer cells.  Underlying all these is the inclusion of a study on protein synthesis as it is the process where biological cells build and create new specific proteins in the body.
