The correct answer is letter C. Dendrites <u>receive information from other neurons or from the external environment.</u> Dendrites are part of the neurons that are responsible for receiving information from the axon and the synapses that occur within the Central and Peripheral Nervous System. These dendrites branch off into multiple other synapses in order for the body to create a long chain of nerve impulses.<u />
Cilia and flagella are projections from the cell. They are made up of microtubules , as shown in this cartoon and are covered by an extension of the plasma membrane. They are motile and designed either to move the cell itself or to move substances over or around the cell.
