Dendrons Axon
  • They receive the stimulus or nerve impulses and forward them to cell body.
  • These are branched cytoplasmic projections of the cell body or cyton of a neuron.
  • It is a long process from the cell body. It is covered by myelin sheath. Myelin sheath shows gaps throughout the length which are called Nodes of Ranvier.


  • It carries stimulus or impulse from cell body and transfers it to dendrites of other neurons through synapses.
