Perhaps the main reason that neurons can communicate over relatively great distances within the body is the fact that neurons contain:
A) a long axon
B) a large cell body
C) many dendrites
D) a variety of neurotransmitters

Question

The other options, such as a large cell body, many dendrites, or a variety of neurotransmitters, do not have as direct of a role in allowing for long-distance communication.
