प्रश्न
Identify the parts of a neuron which help the nerve impulse to travel away from the cell body.
उत्तर
An axon is a long, slender projection of a neuron that normally carries electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body in the form of a depolarization wave. The axon's role is to transmit information to different neurons, muscles, and glands.
