  1. Cyton or cell body - It contains central nucleus and cytoplasm with characteristic deeply stained particles called Nissl’s granules (i.e., clumps of ribosome).

  2. Dendron - These are short processes arising from cyton and further branching into dendrites.

  3. Axon - It is a single long cylindrical process of uniform diameter which forms fine branches terminally. The dendrites receives impulses and the axon takes impulses away from the cell body.

The correct option is C.
