The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Unipolar Neurons**: Unipolar neurons are characterized by having a single process extending from the cell body. This process is known as a neurite, which can develop into branches that form dendritic or axonal processes later in development. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The question provides four options: - Embryos - Dorsal root ganglia of spinal cord - Brain - Retina 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Embryos**: In early development stages, unipolar neurons are present, which can have an axon but no dendrites. - **Dorsal Root Ganglia of Spinal Cord**: These typically contain pseudounipolar neurons, which have a single process that divides into two branches, one functioning as an axon and the other as a dendrite. - **Brain**: The brain contains various types of neurons, but unipolar neurons are not commonly found here. - **Retina**: The retina contains bipolar and ganglion cells, but not unipolar neurons. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, unipolar neurons with an axon and no dendrite are primarily found in the early stages of embryos. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the correct answer is **Embryos**. ---
