To answer the question, we need to identify the two types of processes in a neuron. 1. **Identify the branched process**: Neurons have branched structures that are responsible for receiving signals. These structures are known as **dendrites**. Dendrites extend from the neuron and increase its surface area to receive signals from other neurons. 2. **Identify the single long process**: In addition to dendrites, neurons also have a single long process that transmits signals away from the neuron. This long process is called the **axon**. The axon carries electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons or muscles. So, the complete answer to the question is: Neuron has branched process called **dendrites** and single long process called **axon**. ...
