Dendrites

Question

Dendrites
A) are usually highly branched
B) carry impulses away from the cell body
C) are usually surrounded by myelin
D) all of the above

Accepted Answer

Dendrites are usually highly branched, allowing them to receive signals from multiple other neurons and convey those signals towards the cell body. They do not carry impulses away from the cell body (that is the job of axons), nor are they usually surrounded by myelin.
