                                       Dendrites- Tree-like part of the neuron that receives information from
                                       another neuron and transmits the information toward the body cell.

                                       Axon-   Part of the neuron that transmits  information away from the
                                       cell body.

                                       Body cell-  Part of the neuron that contains the nucleus, dendrites
                                       bring information to this structure and axons carry it away from this
                                       structure.
