Is and axon bulb and an axon hillock the same thing?
axon hillock = where cell body meets the axon axon bulb = end of the axon...lies very close to the dendrites of another neuron so impulses can pass over the synapse. AP Biology student *

what is the axon made of
The axon is connected to the soma by the?

Why was the squid axon particularly appropriate for nerve research?
The squid axon is the largest axon known in the whole animal kingdom, the axon of the squid is also very much like humans and most mammal axon, thus making is an ideal axon to use during research
The long process of a neuron is called the?
Axon.
Which region of the cell body from which the axon originates?
The axon originates from the axon hillock, a specialized region of the cell body that connects to the initial segment of the axon. This area is important for integrating incoming signals and deciding whether to generate an action potential.
What is the very beginning of the axon called?
The very beginning of the axon is called the axon hillock. It is where the electrical signals from the cell body are gathered and then transmitted down the axon.
