Question

How does information flow through the most common type of cns neuron (iist the 3 regions in the proper order)?

Answer 1

A neuron is a nervous system cell specialized in the communication and processing of information. Each neuron is composed of three regions:* a cell body or perikaryon comprising the nucleus.* numerous dendritic type ramifications (from which the information comes).* and an axon, through which the information is disseminated.

There's more than one type of neurons in the CNS:
*Multipolar neurons: composed of many dendrites and one axon which are the more frequent in the CNS.
*Bipolar neurons: with only one branch of dendrites.
*Unipolar neurons: with only one branch of dendrites, but has a shape of "T".
*Anaxonic neurons: which has no axone, it has only dendrites.

Answer 2

First of all, the most common type of CNS neuron is the multipolar neuron meaning it has many dendrites and dendritic branches, a cell body or soma, and a single axon. The information flow through this neurons starting from receiving multiple impulses from multiple synapses since this kind of neurons has many dendrites. The signal will then flow in an anterograde manner meaning the multiple signals will flow towards the cell body or the soma to be integrated. Next is that the integrated signal will flow to the neuron's axon to be transmitted to other neurons.
