NEET PG DENTAL EXAM

Detailed explanation-1: -Dendrites are the structures on the neuron, that function by receiving electrical messages. The functions of dendrites are to transfer the received information to the soma of the neuron. Other biological processes of Dendrites are: Dendrites receive the data or signals from another neuron.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -A typical neuron consists of a cell body (soma), dendrites, and a single axon. The soma is a compact structure, and the axon and dendrites are filaments extruding from the soma. Dendrites typically branch profusely and extend a few hundred micrometers from the soma.
