• parasympathetic

• sympathetic

• central nervous system

• peripheral nervous system

In the neuron, the main function of the dendrites is to

• release neurotransmitters to signal subsequent neurons

• preserve the speed and integrity of the neural signal as it propagates down the axon

• perform the metabolic reactions necessary to nourish and maintain the neurons

• receive input from other neurons

• connect the cell body to the axon
