Which of the following is NOT a fundamental component of a neuron?

  • A.Soma
  • B.Dendrites
  • C.Axons
  • D.Synaptic cleft

Answer: D

The synaptic cleft is not a component of a neuron. It is the tiny gap between the terminal button of one neuron and the dendrite or cell body of the next, across which neurotransmitters pass. The soma (cell body), dendrites (receiving branches) and axon (the long fibre carrying the impulse away) are the three fundamental parts of the neuron itself.
