Neurons with several processes branching off the cell body, such as motor neurons and interneurons (association neurons), are structurally classified as ________.

Respuesta :

Multipolar Neuron

Explanation:

  • Multipolar neurons are the most well-known sort of neuron. They are situated in the central nervous system and in autonomic ganglia. Multipolar neurons have multiple procedures exuding from the neuron cell body.  
  • ]A case of a multipolar neuron is a Purkinje cell in the cerebellum, which has many branching dendrites yet just a single axon.
  • Similar characteristics are shared by Pseudounipolar cells to those with Unipolar and Bipolar cells

Answer:

Multipolar Neuron

Explanation:

Nerve tissues(such as brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves that branch throughout the body) are all made up of specialised nerve cells called *NEURONS*.

Types of Neurons

There are 3 main types of Neurons :

1)Sensory Neurons

2)Motor Neurons

3)Interneuron/Connector neuron or Association Neurons

Classification of Neuron:

Based on their structure,neurons can be classified into 3 main types:

1)Unipolar Neurons

2)Bipolar Neurons

3)Multipolar Neurons*

Motor neurons,which have numerous cell processes(an axon and many dendrites) are often referred to as *MULTIPOLAR NEURONS*.........*Interneurons are also Multipolar*.

*An example is found in the motor neuron of the spinal reflex arc*.
