What anatomical characteristic determines wether a particular neuron is classified as unipolar bipolar or multipolar?
The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
Neurons are classified on the basis of their structure as?
Anaxonic, unipolar, bipolar or multipolar
What is the function of the giant multipolar neuron?
Giant multipolar neurons are neurons that have three of more processes attached to their cell bodies. A majority of multipolar neurons are involved in movement.
Are interneurons unipolar?
no they are multipolar.
Where is a giant multipolar neuron located?
Multipolar neuroins are located in many different places but the main big ones are in the spinal cord and the brain carying information.

The anatomical region of a multipolar neuron that has the lowest threshold for generating an action potential is?
Axon hillock
What neuron has two cell processes?
Neurons with two processes are classified as bipolar neurons.
What is the function of the giant multipolar neuron?
Giant multipolar neurons are neurons that have three of more processes attached to their cell bodies. A majority of multipolar neurons are involved in movement.
Are interneurons unipolar?
no they are multipolar.
The most type of neuron in the human body is?
Multipolar neurons This is the most common type of neuron, with one axon and many dendrites. Multipolar neurons are so-named because they have many (multi-) processes that extend from the cell body: lots of dendrites plus a single axon. Functionally, these neurons are either motor (conducting impulses that will cause activity such as the contraction of muscles) or association (conducting impulses and permitting 'communication' between neurons within the central nervous system).
What are classification structure?
Biopolar multipolar unipolar
Where is a giant multipolar neuron located?
Multipolar neuroins are located in many different places but the main big ones are in the spinal cord and the brain carying information.
What is the weak spot of a multipolar economic race?
balance
What type of neuron has many dendrites?
multipolar neuron
What are Structural classification neurons?
Biopolar multipolar unipolar
