Bipolar neuron :~ A neuron having ene dendron and one axon is called bipolar. They generally occur in sescry Layers like olfactory epithelium. Unipolar neuron :~ It has single process as axon but dencicite is absent. Peaxkounipolar neuron :~ Such neuron has single fibre arising from cyton which bifurcates into one dendzon, ‘and one axon. @ Nempolar or apolar neuron :~ These neurons have meny fibres but they are not distinguished into dentirites and avon. zach fibre can receive inpulse towards cyton or can conduct impulse away fram cyton.
