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.
Long process that extends from the soma and is responsible for transmitting the neuron's signal from the soma to the terminal buttons (it carries impulse away from cell body); the axon typically splits in many little branches that each have terminal buttons at the end.
