Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Dendrite → cell body → axon’.
Detailed explanation-2: -The nerve impulse first starts at the dendrites, then arrives at the cell body, which contains the nucleus of the neuron. The red arrows in Figure 1 show the path that the nerve impulse will take from the cell body and along the threadlike part of the neuron called an axon.
Detailed explanation-3: -When neurons are stimulated they transmit an electrical impulse. The pathway followed is: stimulus—> dendrite–> cell body–> axon–> axon terminal–> passage of stimulus.
