Card 5 / 12:
Which morphological adaptations of neurons make them suitable for the transmission of nerve impulse?
Neurons are well suited for the transmission of nerve impulses because short extensions, dendrites, receive impulses from other neurons, while a long tail extension, an axon, carries electrical impulses away from the cell to other neurons.
