NEET Zoology Neuron MCQ Question
Which combination of statements about neurons is correct?
Dendrites transmit impulses towards the cell body. 2. Myelinated axons are faster in impulse conduction than unmyelinated axons. 3. Unipolar neurons have one axon only and are primarily found in the retina.
Dendrites transmit impulses away from the cell body. 2. Axons have synaptic knobs that contain neurotransmitters. 3. Bipolar neurons have multiple axons and are found in the cerebral cortex.
Axons transmit impulses towards the cell body. 2. Myelinated axons are slower in impulse conduction than unmyelinated axons. 3. Multipolar neurons have one axon and one dendrite.
Dendrites contain synaptic vesicles. 2. Unipolar neurons are always found in the embryonic stage. 3. Bipolar neurons are found in the retina.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Dendrites indeed transmit impulses towards the cell body, myelinated axons conduct impulses faster than unmyelinated ones, and unipolar neurons have one axon only, typically found in the embryonic stage, not the retina.
