The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Nissl's Granules**: Nissl's granules are granular structures found in neurons. They are primarily associated with the cell's protein synthesis. 2. **Identifying Neuron Structure**: Neurons consist of several parts: the cell body (also known as the soma or cyton), dendrites, and axon. 3. **Locating Nissl's Granules**: Nissl's granules are specifically located in the cell body (cyton) of the neuron. This is where the rough endoplasmic reticulum is modified to form these granules. 4. **Exclusion of Other Parts**: The axon, dendrites, and synaptic knobs do not contain Nissl's granules. Therefore, they can be excluded as options for the location of Nissl's granules. 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the above points, the correct answer to the question is that Nissl's granules are present in the cell body (cyton) of a neuron. **Final Answer**: Nissl's granules are present in the cell body (cyton) of a neuron. ---
