Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dendrites receive signals from other neurons, allowing for signal reception, while axons transmit signals to other neurons or to muscles, representing signal transmission. Therefore, the best answer is C, as it describes the main function of each structure. A is incorrect because both dendrites and axons can be present in sensory and motor neurons. B is incorrect because dendrites and axons are not involved in the movement of ions. D is incorrect because dendrites and axons can be found in both the central and peripheral nervous systems.
