Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dendrites are the branchlike structures that receive messages from other neurons. Axons are the long, thin structures that transmit messages to other neurons or to muscles or glands. Nerve bundles refer to groups of axons bundled together, and mylons are a type of fat that coats some axons to insulate them and help messages travel faster.
