A neuron with one axon and 25 dendrites would be:

Correct answer: D. Multipolar

  • A. Unipolar
  • B. Bipolar
  • C. In the Central Nervous System only
  • D. Multipolar

Explanation

Multipolar neurons are characterized by having multiple processes extending from the cell body, including one axon and multiple dendrites. They are the most common type of neuron found in the central nervous system (CNS) and are involved in a wide range of functions, including sensory processing, motor control, and integration of information. Therefore, a neuron with one axon and 25 dendrites would not be considered multipolar.

About Coordination and Control

Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
