Document Summary
Dendrites and cell body axon hillock axon axon terminals: for each of the four functional zones (e. g. reception, integration, etc) tell me the part(s) of the neuron that performs that function. Transmission : the axon of this neuron is myelinated. At the axon hillock/initial segment, at the nodes of. So many of you failed to read the question: from origin to termination means i wanted you to tell me about the axon hillock/initial segment and the axon terminals. In the familiar figure below we can see the dynamic polarization of neurons: Astrocytes are one of the three major types of supporting cells in the cns: by surrounding the individual axons in a fiber tract, astrocytes are able to remove excess k+ from extracellular fluid. K+ efflux during each action potential is responsible for the falling phase it goes from cytosol to extracellular fluid and that raises [k]o.
