What is the name of the neuron structure at location [C]?

• Nucleus

• Axon

• Cell Body

• Myelin Sheath

What is the name of the neuron structure at location [D]?

• Terminal Button

• Axon

• Myelin

The function of the myelin sheath is to

• receive incoming nerve impulses from adjoining neurons.

• insulate the axon, speeding up nerve impulse transmission

• Hold neurotransmitters until they are released into the synapse

• Provide an area for nerve impulses to 'jump' between, speeding up transmission

The function of the dendrites are to

• receive incoming nerve impulses from adjoining neurons.

• insulate the axon, speeding up nerve impulse transmission

• Hold neurotransmitters until they are released into the synapse

• Provide an area for nerve impulses to 'jump' between, speeding up transmission

The function of the axon terminal is to

• receive incoming nerve impulses from adjoining neurons.

• insulate the axon, speeding up nerve impulse transmission

• Hold neurotransmitters until they are released into the synapse

• Provide an area for nerve impulses to 'jump' between, speeding up transmission

The function of the nodes of ranvier is to

• receive incoming nerve impulses from adjoining neurons.

• insulate the axon, speeding up nerve impulse transmission

• Hold neurotransmitters until they are released into the synapse

• Provide an area for nerve impulses to 'jump' between, speeding up transmission

Which of these is not one of the main types of neurons?

• Interneuron

• Motor Neuron

• Spinal Neuron

• Sensory Neuron
