Answer:

D. Receiving messages from other cells

Explanation:

The axon does not receive messages from other cells but rather transmits messages from cell body to the dendrites of other neurons or to other body tissue such as muscle, bone and so on. The dendrites are the one that receive messages from other cells. The axon is a long single fibre found in vertebrate animals. It is the part of the neuron that sends signals to synapses. Along with being long, they are slender, thin and tendril-like.

Answer:

Receiving messages from other cells ( D )

Explanation:

The Axon is a long slender projection of the nerve cell that transmits electrical impulses from the the cell body to the dendrites and other tissues in the body of a vertebrate like the bones , muscles and glands

while the dendrite is charged with receiving messages from other cells in the body of  a vertebrate. the axon carrying a neural impulse and also depolarization ( a change within a cell caused by change in electric charge distribution ) and this change cause a decrease in the negative charge inside the cell. are some of the functions of the Axon as well.

The Axon is usually encased by myellin sheath

ololo11 [35]

Double-blind design: this is how the study will be conducted. This means that in this study, participants will know which treatments are being applied to each participant. In this case, the researcher can hire a doctor or health professional who can deliver the different treatments to the participants without the researcher and the participants themselves knowing what treatment is being delivered and which participants are not receiving any treatment.

Antagonist: It will be a substance used to establish connections in the participants' neurological receptors, but without activating these receptors and preventing any other substance from activating them.

Acetylcholine: Will be the neurotransmitter tested in treatments, as it is the main neurotransmitter often related to the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis and schizophrenia

Positron Emission Tomography (PET): It will allow the visualization of images that will allow the evaluation of the functioning of the neurotransmitters related to each tested treatment.

Blood-brain barrier: It will allow the assessment of the metabolic function of the participants' brain, as it protects the nervous system from toxic and harmful substances. This cerebral metabolic function will be evaluated in relation to each treatment applied.

Myelin sheath: is the protective layer of nerve cells. It is usually damaged in people who have Parkinson's disease, alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis and schizophrenia, for this reason, it will allow the assessment of their protection in relation to each treatment tested.
