Question

question 4
neurons that have a single axon and a single dendrite are:
a tripolar
b pseudo - unipolar
c bipolar
d multipolar

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Bipolar neurons: These neurons have one axon and one dendrite. They are often found in special sense organs like the retina (for vision) and the olfactory epithelium (for smell).
  • Tripolar: This is not a standard classification for neurons in the context of axon - dendrite structure.
  • Pseudo - unipolar: These neurons start as bipolar during development but the two processes (axon and dendrite) fuse near the cell body, giving the appearance of a single process that later branches.
  • Multipolar: These neurons have one axon and multiple dendrites. Most neurons in the central nervous system (e.g., motor neurons) are multipolar.

Answer:

C. bipolar
