Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The axon is the part of the neuron that conducts electrical signals away from the cell body, towards other neurons or target cells. Neuroglial cells are support cells for neurons and do not conduct electrical signals, dendrites receive signals from other neurons and conduct them towards the cell body, and the soma (cell body) is where the nucleus and other organelles are located, but it does not conduct electrical signals.
