ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Structure of a neuron. At one end of the cell body (and indeed, around most of its periphery) are many small, branching protrusions called dendrites. Extending from the other end of the cell body at a location called the axon hillock is the axon, a long, thin, tube-like protrusion.

Detailed explanation-2: -Axon. An axon is a long, tail-like structure. It joins the cell body at a specialized junction called the axon hillock.

Detailed explanation-3: -Each neuron in your brain has one long cable that snakes away from the main part of the cell. This cable, several times thinner than a human hair, is called an axon, and it is where electrical impulses from the neuron travel away to be received by other neurons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Golgi I or Golgi type I neuron is a neuron, which has a long axon that begins in the grey matter of the central nervous system and may extend from there.

Detailed explanation-5: -Dendrites extend out from the cell body and receive messages from other nerve cells. An axon is a long single fiber that transmits messages from the cell body to the dendrites of other neurons or to other body tissues, such as muscles.
