Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which Structural Classification of Neurons have a short single process
A
Multipolar Neurons
B
Bipolar Neurons
C
Unipolar Neurons
D
Interneurons
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Unipolar neurons have only one process and are found mostly in invertebrates. Bipolar neurons are usually oval in shape and contain two processes, a dendrite that receives signals usually from the periphery and an axon that propagates the signal to the central nervous system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Unipolar neurons are the simplest class of neurons that exhibit a single extension that gives rise to branches, some of which are receptive (dendrites);

Detailed explanation-3: -Unipolar neurons: have a short single process leaving the cell body.

Detailed explanation-4: -Unipolar neurons are the simplest form, with one axon extending from the cell body. The axon splits up into dendrites at the ends. Unipolar neurons do not occur in humans. Bipolar neurons have one axon and one dendrite extending from the cell body.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sensory neurons, or afferent neurons transmit information from sensory receptors in the skin, or the internal organs toward the CNS for processing. Almost all sensory neurons are unipolar.
