Question

The branches of the neuron that receive impulses from other neurons are called _____, and the tube-like structure that conveys impulses toward other neurons is called the ______.

Answer 1

Answer: DENDRITES and  AXON

Explanation:  Neuron are the functional units of nervous system. They are responsible for the conduct of action potential as nerve transmission from the Central nervous system of the brain and spinal cord to the effectors:

glands and muscles and vice versa.

Dendrites located in the cell body of neuron receive impulses, and send these to the axon which conduct these signals to the end terminals for Synapse with another neuron.

tthis process of conduct takes place as a result of movement of ions across the membranes of the axon.
