Question

Electrical impulse travels in a neuron from:

Options

• Nerve ending → Axon → Cell body → Dendrite

• Dendrite → Cell body → Axon → Nerve ending

• Cell body → Dendrite → Axon → Nerve ending

• Dendrite → Axon → Nerve ending → Cell body

Answer 1

Dendrite → Cell body → Axon → Nerve ending

Explanation:

1. Dendrite receives signals from other neurons or sensory receptors.
2. Cell body (Soma) processes the received signals and generates an action potential.
3. Axon transmits the electrical impulse away from the cell body.
4. Nerve ending (Axon terminal) transfers the impulse to the next neuron or an effector (muscle or gland) via neurotransmitters.
