all of these choices

The dendrites of a neuron do what? are the main receiving region of a neuron secrete neurotransmitters conduct impulses toward another neuron do not carry potentials, only axons do

are the main receiving region of a neuron

Plasticity means the ability to regenerate after being damaged. communicate by hormones convert stimulus into an action potential. change based on experience. stretch and recoil without damage.

change based on experience
