Axon

Elongated portion of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, typically from the cell body to the synapse.

The junction between two neurons or a neuron and a muscle, where electrical or chemical signals are transmitted across.

Dendrites

Branch-like extensions of neurons that receive signals from other nerve cells and conduct them toward the cell body.
