Which structure in the neuron is responsible for transmitting electrical impulses? (2019)
  • Step 1: Understand what a neuron is. A neuron is a type of cell in the nervous system that sends and receives signals.
  • Step 2: Identify the main parts of a neuron. The main parts are the cell body, dendrites, and axon.
  • Step 3: Learn the function of the axon. The axon is a long, thin structure that carries electrical impulses away from the cell body.
  • Step 4: Recognize that the axon is crucial for communication in the nervous system. It helps transmit signals to other neurons or muscles.
