Advertisements
उत्तर
| Dendrites | Axons | |
| 1. | The dendrite is a small projection arising from the neuron. It conducts the nerve impulse towards the cell body. | Axon is a single, long projection that conducts the nerve impulse away from cell body to the next neuron. |
| 2. | Nissl’s granules are present in dendrites. | Nissl’s granules are absent from axons. |
| 3. | They are close to the nerve body. | These are distal to the nerve body. |
| 4. | These are small and larger in number. | These are long and cylindrical at the base. |
| 5. | These carry the stimuli to the cell body. | They carry impulses from the cell body to other nerve cells. |
