Answer 2

Answer and Explanation:

A neuron is the main cell that makes up the nervous system. Its function is to receive information (external and internal stimuli), process it and transmit it through electrical and chemical signals (nerve impulses) to other cells such as muscle fibers. The connection that is made between neurons or between them and other cells is called a synapse.

The structure of neurons is characterized by having:

- a cell body called soma, which is located in the central position.

- numerous short filments called dendrites, which transmit the impusions to the soma.

- a long filament, the axon, which carries information from the soma to its destination (either in a neuron or another cell)
