Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ganglia are collections of neuron cell bodies, meaning that dendrites and soma are completely contained within a ganglion. The axon, however, may extend out of the ganglion to communicate with other neurons or muscles. Therefore, neither A nor B are completely contained within a ganglion. Answer D is incorrect as well.
