In a neuron, impulses move
A
from dendrite to axon
B
from cell body to dendrite
C
from axon to cell body
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The electrical impulses are received by the dendrites of the neurons. The dendrites transfer these impulses to the cell body from which they emerge. The axon receives the impulses from the cell body and transfers them to the axonal end.

Detailed explanation-2: -Within a neuron, the impulse moves to the tip of an axon and causes the release of neurotransmitters, chemicals that act as messengers. Neurotransmitters pass through the synapse, the gap between two nerve cells, and attach to receptors on the receiving cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: The electrical impulse travels in a neuron from Dendrite → cell body → axon → axonal end.
