_______ are Specialized for Receiving Impulses

Question

_______ are specialized for receiving impulses.
A) Adipose cells
B) Axons
C) Collagen fibers
D) Dendrites

Accepted Answer

Dendrites are specialized for receiving impulses. They are short, branched extensions of a neuron that receive input from other neurons and transmit this information to the cell body. Axons, on the other hand, are specialized for transmitting impulses away from the cell body. Adipose cells are fat cells and collagen fibers are structural proteins that provide support and strength to tissues.
