axon

Usually, most message-sending axons touch a message-receiving dendrite just once.

Machine learning algorithms segmented cells and classified synapses, axons, dendrites, cells, and other structures, and humans checked their work.

At the other end of the neuron, long tail-like axons extend toward other parts of the brain or body.

The message leaves an axon through finger-like terminals at the end.

Electrical signals move along the axon as waves of positively and negatively charged ions.

One of these processes, the axon, is much longer than the others and ends in a muscle or organ of sensation.

The axon forms the pathway over which nervous impulses travel to and from the nerve centers.

We saw a moment ago that every axon is inclosed in a sheath.

The contact of the axon of one neuron with the dendrons of another is called a synapse.

Its dendrites are short tree-like branches, while its axon is often several inches or even feet in length.
