Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Communication between neurons occurs primarily through synapses, which are specialized junctions formed between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite (or cell body) of another neuron. Therefore, both axons and dendrites are especially important for communication between one neuron and another. Glia are support cells for neurons and are not directly involved in communication between neurons.
