What part of a nerve cell, a neuron, is responsible for receiving messages from other neurons?

Axon

Dendrite

spinal cord

Cell body

Dendrite

Dendrite

The correct answer is the Dendrite. Dendrites are the branch-like structures on a neuron that receive messages from other neurons. They serve as the cell's primary point of contact for receiving signals and information from neighboring neurons. The dendrites extend out from the cell body and have specialized receptors that detect and respond to chemical signals called neurotransmitters, which are released by other neurons. Once the dendrites receive these signals, they transmit the information to the cell body, where further processing and integration of the signals occur.
