Final answer:

Based on the illustration, the classification of the neuron is bipolar.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bipolar neuron has one axon and one dendrite extending from the soma.

An example of a bipolar neuron is a retinal bipolar cell, which receives signals from photoreceptor cells that are sensitive to light and transmits these signals to ganglion cells that carry the signal to the brain.
