Question
the three major parts of the neuron are
multiple choice
the glial cells, the dendrites, and the cell body.
the glial cells, the cell body, and the axon.
the dendrites, the cell body, and the myelin sheath.
the dendrites, the cell body, and the axon.
Glial cells are support cells for neurons, not part of the neuron itself. The myelin sheath is an insulating layer that may surround some axons, but it is not one of the three core structural parts of a neuron. The three fundamental components of a neuron are dendrites (which receive signals), the cell body (which houses the nucleus and processes signals), and the axon (which transmits signals to other cells).
