Answer:  Cell body, Soma, or Perikaryon.

Explanation:

Neurons can vary in morphology but they keep 4 well-defined regions with distinct functions, they are: the Axon, the Axon terminals, Dendrites, and the cell body. To answer the question we are going to analyze the cell body. Because it contains the nucleus and other organelles, in this region we have the synthesis of practically all neuronal proteins and membranes, which gives it importance. Special transport processes involving microtubules move proteins and membranes from their sites of synthesis in the cell body down the length of the axon to the terminals.
