Question

select all that apply
identify the primary components of the neuron.
terminal buttons
corpus callosum
cell body
dendrites
axon

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To identify the primary components of a neuron, we analyze each option:

  • Terminal buttons: These are part of the neuron (axon terminals) that release neurotransmitters.
  • Corpus callosum: This is a structure connecting the two hemispheres of the brain, not a neuron component.
  • Cell body: The cell body (soma) is a primary component of a neuron, containing the nucleus.
  • Dendrites: Dendrites receive signals from other neurons, a key neuron component.
  • Axon: The axon transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body, a primary component.

So we select the options that are neuron components.

Answer:

  • terminal buttons (should be "terminal buttons" corrected to "terminal buttons" (note: correct term is "terminal buttons" or "axon terminals", but as per the option, we include it if it's a neuron component; however, sometimes "terminal buttons" might be a typo for "terminal boutons" which are axon terminals, but assuming the option is intended to be a neuron component, we include it. Wait, actually, the primary components of a neuron are cell body, dendrites, axon, and axon terminals (terminal buttons/boutons). The corpus callosum is not a neuron component. So the correct options are:
  • terminal buttons (assuming it's axon terminals)
  • cell body
  • dendrites
  • axon

So the checkboxes to select are:

  • terminal buttons
  • cell body
  • dendrites
  • axon

(Note: The option "corpus callosum" is incorrect as it's a brain structure, not a neuron component.)
