Correct answer: A. Dendrites

  • A. Dendrites
  • B. Axon
  • C. Both of these

Dendrites receive signals and carry them toward the cell body, whereas the axon usually carries impulses away from it. The likely mistake is choosing the axon because it is also a cytoplasmic extension, but its usual direction is away from the cell body.
