Detailed explanation-1: -These parts are called telodendron and continue with the synapse (synaptic knob or button) which represents the specialized structure that comes into contact with another neuron (soma, axon or dendrite), or muscle fiber.
Detailed explanation-2: -Axon. The axon, also called a nerve fiber, is a tail-like structure of the neuron which joins the cell body at a junction called the axon hillock. The function of the axon is to carry signals away from the cell body to the terminal buttons in order to transmit electrical signals to other neurons.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -An axon is a long tail-like extension of a neuron that carries impulses away from the cell body to other cells. 1. About half of all axons contain myelin, which is a white substance made up of fat and protein, that insulates and protects them and speeds impulses along.
