2. terminal buttons
- houses the genetic info of the neuron
- the very end of the neuron where the nerve impulses become a chemical message that can be passed to the dendrite or another neuron
- tiny sacs that contain molecules of neurotransmitter chemicals
- gaps between the myelin sheath which make the electrical impulses jump and move faster down the axon.
3. Myelin Sheath
- branches at the top end of a neuron that receive messages from other neurons
- the fatty deposit that provides insulation for the axon and allows electrical impulses to be passed along
- the end of the axon that leads to the terminal buttons
- main part of the cell where the nucleus and mitochondria are
4. vesicles
