The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct sequence of structures present between a receptor and an effector in a neuron, we can break down the process step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Receptor**: - The receptor in a neuron is typically located on the dendrites. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons or stimuli, making them the first point of contact in the neural pathway. - **Hint**: Remember that dendrites are responsible for receiving information. 2. **Signal Transmission to Cell Body**: - After the dendrites receive the signal, the nerve impulse travels to the cell body (CB). The cell body processes the incoming signals. - **Hint**: Think of the cell body as the control center of the neuron. 3. **Traveling Along the Axon**: - From the cell body, the impulse moves down the axon (A). The axon is responsible for transmitting the impulse away from the cell body towards the next neuron or effector. - **Hint**: The axon acts like a highway for the nerve impulse. 4. **Reaching the Nerve Ending**: - The impulse then reaches the nerve endings, where it prepares to transmit the signal to the next neuron or effector. - **Hint**: Nerve endings are crucial for passing on the signal. 5. **Crossing the Synapse**: - The signal crosses the synapse (S), which is the gap between two neurons. Neurotransmitters are released here to facilitate communication between neurons. - **Hint**: The synapse is the bridge between two neurons. 6. **Continuing the Process**: - After crossing the synapse, the signal reaches the dendrites of the next neuron, and the process repeats: dendrites (D), cell body (CB), axon (A), and synapse (S). - **Hint**: This cycle continues as long as signals need to be transmitted. ### Final Sequence: Putting it all together, the sequence of structures from receptor to effector is: - Dendrite (D) → Cell Body (CB) → Axon (A) → Synapse (S) → Dendrite (D) of the next neuron. Thus, the correct option that describes this sequence is: **D → CB → A → S → D**. ### Answer: The correct sequence is **D, CB, A, S**.
