Question

exam 3 - chapters 10 and 11 nervous syst... what cytoplasmic extensions, together with the cell body, provide the main receptive surfaces for neurons? multiple choice chromatophilic substance (nissl bodies) neurofibrils axons dendrites

Explanation:

Dendrites are the cytoplasmic extensions (along with the cell body) that mainly receive signals for neurons. Chromatophilic substance (Nissl bodies) is related to protein synthesis in neurons, neurofibrils are for support, and axons are for transmitting signals away from the cell body, not receiving. So dendrites are the main receptive surfaces.

Answer:

Dendrites
