Neuron Quiz

Path of an impulse to brain/spinal cord:

• Stimulus (dendrites of sensory neuron) → cyton → axon → terminal branch → synapse → dendrites of next neuron  …  until it reaches brain or spinal cord

• Stimulus (dendrites of sensory neuron) → synapse →axon →terminal branch → cyton → dendrites of next neuron ... until it reaches brain or spinal cord

• Stimulus (dendrites of sensory neuron) → axon →cyton→dendrites of next neuron → synapse →terminal branch ...until it reaches brain or spinal cord

• Stimulus (dendrites of sensory neuron) → dendrites of next neuron → terminal branch → synapse → cyton →axon ... until it reaches brain or spinal cord
