Question
Chapter 12.2, Problem 5WDYL
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Which type of axonal transport is both anterograde and retrograde and also give examples of substances transported by this method.
Concept introduction:
Neurons are the basic functional unit of the nervous system and are the specialized cells of the nervous system that makes a complex network for the transmission of messages. A neuron comprises of the cell body, nerve fibers, dendrites, and an axon in its structure.
