Answer

dendrite is the special immune cell that is found all round your body( it means on ur tissues ) and it is responsible for the movement of information in our body to our nervous system so is means it involve cell

Answer:

The definition of dendrite: a short branched extension of a nerve cell, along which impulses received from other cells at synapses are transmitted to the cell body.

For 1, the answer should be B, as it is a part of the neuron and spreads information throughout the body.

For 2, the answer is A: stimuli.

For 3, the answer is C: Interneurons help signals move from one neuron to another toward the spinal cord
