A neuron with one axon and one dendrite would be:

Correct answer: B. Bipolar

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

Explanation

Bipolar neurons have two processes extending from the cell body: one axon and one dendrite. These neurons are commonly found in specialized sensory systems, such as the retina of the eye, the olfactory epithelium in the nose, and the cochlea in the inner ear. Bipolar neurons are involved in relaying sensory information from receptors to other neurons in the central nervous system (CNS).

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.
