Dendrites - thread like branches which accept impulses from adjoining neurons and carry them toward the the cell body., Axon Terminal - Once a nerve impulse reaches this point, it is passed to another neuron via the synapse., Synapse - the space between 2 neurons which neurotransmitters must cross to relay nerve impulses., Myelin Sheath - An insulating material which coats the axon of a neuron to speed up impulse transmission., Schwann Cells - Cells responsible for creating myelin, as well as neurilemma. , Nodes of Ranvier - Small gaps on the axon between myelin sheaths. Nerve impulses "jump" down these nodes., Axon - Longer branches which carry nerve impulses away from the cell body and toward the axon terminal.,
