AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Dendrites. Dendrites are tree-like extensions at the beginning of a neuron that help increase the surface area of the cell body. These tiny protrusions receive information from other neurons and transmit electrical stimulation to the soma. Dendrites are also covered with synapses.

Detailed explanation-2: -Axon – The long, thin structure in which action potentials are generated; the transmitting part of the neuron. After initiation, action potentials travel down axons to cause release of neurotransmitter.

Detailed explanation-3: -A neuron sending a signal (i.e., a presynaptic neuron) releases a chemical called a neurotransmitter, which binds to a receptor on the surface of the receiving (i.e., postsynaptic) neuron. Neurotransmitters are released from presynaptic terminals, which may branch to communicate with several postsynaptic neurons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The dendrites is the part of the neuron that transfers a message from one neuron to other neurons. Dendrites are the branch of neurons that is a root-like structure made up of fibers that receive the signals from one neuron to the another with the help of electrical and chemical impulses.
