Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurons have only one axon, which is responsible for carrying signals away from the cell body. They can have multiple dendrites, which receive signals from other neurons. Neurons are not all the same size, as some can be quite small while others can be long, such as the neurons that stretch from the spinal cord to the toes.
