The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Nissl's granules are absent in," we need to analyze the options provided and understand the characteristics of Nissl's granules. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Nissl's Granules**: - Nissl's granules are structures found in neurons, primarily composed of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and ribosomes. They are involved in protein synthesis. 2. **Identifying Locations of Nissl's Granules**: - Nissl's granules are predominantly found in the cell body of the neuron, also known as the cyton or soma. - They are also present in dendrites (the branched extensions of the neuron that receive signals). 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1: Dendrons and Dendrites**: Nissl's granules are present in both dendrons and dendrites. - **Option 2: Cytons**: Nissl's granules are present in cytons (the cell body of the neuron). - **Option 3: Axons**: Nissl's granules are absent in axons. The axon is the long, slender projection of a neuron that conducts electrical impulses away from the cell body, and it does not contain Nissl's granules. - **Option 4: Dendrons and Cytons**: Nissl's granules are present in both dendrons and cytons. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since Nissl's granules are specifically absent in the axon, the correct answer to the question is **Option 3: Axons**. ### Final Answer: Nissl's granules are absent in **Axons**.
