Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The flow of an impulse through a neuron
A
dendrites ____ axon ____ cell body ____ synapse
B
dendrites ____ cell body ____ axon termnal ____ axon
C
dendrites ____ cell body ____ axon ____ axon ternimal
D
axon ____ axon terminal ____ cell body ____ dendrties
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Dendrite → cell body → axon’.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nerve impulses begin in a dendrite, move toward the cell body, and then move down the axon. A nerve impulse travels along the neuron in the form of electrical and chemical signals. The axon tip ends at a synapse. A synapse is the junction between each axon tip and the next structure.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is the correct direction of flow of electrical impulses? Solution: For the generation of nerve impulses, nerve cells should be in contact with each other. The nerve impulse is transmitted in the following sequence: Axon end-synapse-dendrites-dendron-cyton-axon body-axon end.
