Question

question 2 what do dendrites do? send messages down the axon direct nutrition and growth of the neuron move messages across the synapse from one neuron to another receive information sent from other neurons

Explanation:

To determine the function of dendrites, we analyze each option:

• "send messages down the axon" is the role of the axon, not dendrites.
• "direct nutrition and growth of the neuron" is the role of the cell body (soma) and related structures, not dendrites.
• "move messages across the synapse from one neuron to another" is the role of neurotransmitters and the synapse process, not dendrites.
• "receive information sent from other neurons" accurately describes the function of dendrites, as they are the part of the neuron that receives signals from other neurons' axons or terminals.

Answer:

D. receive information sent from other neurons
