The diagram shows the components of a neuron and how it works

Write a report for a university, lecturer describing the information shown below.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The given diagram illustrates the components of a neuron and its functions.
Overall
, they have three components

body
,
axon
, and terminal buttons. The
axon
is the connection between

body
(soma) a ball-shaped structure covered with Dendrites which are in a root form used to receive messages from other cells.

Further
, the
axon
passes messages away from the

body
to other neurons, muscles, or glands. The electrical travelling down the
axon
is called action potential, At the right part of the diagram is the terminal button which is connected with other cells.
Therefore
, it is a connection point with other cells.
