The soma is the cell body of the neuron that contains the nucleus and much of the other 'life' of the neuron. Dendrites and axons reach out from the soma to connect with other neurons.
A typical neuron consists of a cell body (soma), dendrites, and an axon. The term neurite is used to describe either a dendrite or an axon, particularly in its undifferentiated stage.ynaptic signals from other neurons are received by the soma and dendrites; signals to other neurons are transmitted by the axon. A typical synapse, then, is a contact between the axon of one neuron and a dendrite or soma of another.
