Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The action potential passes through the cell body or soma before reaching the axon. The cell body integrates signals from the dendrites and decides whether to generate an action potential, which then travels down the axon. Glial cells and synapses are not involved in generating the action potential itself.
