The cell body produces proteins needed for the construction of other parts of the neuron What is the function of the axon part of a neuron? - Typically carry signals away from the cell body. They are long nerve processes that may branch out to convey signals to various areas What are the function of the dendrites of a neuron? - Typically carry signals toward the cell body. Dendrites are usually more numerous, shorter and more branched than axons. They have many synapses in order to receive signal messages from nearby neurons What is the function of the myelin sheath of a neuron? - The Myelin Sheath of a neuron consists of fat-containing cells that insulate the axon from electrical activity
