Neuron Memes

The eternal question that keeps neurobiologists up at night! 🧠👖 A neuron has a cell body (soma), dendrites that receive signals, and an axon that sends them - making for some VERY complicated pants logistics! Option 1 puts pants on the dendrites and axon terminals, option 2 dresses just the axon like a fancy little leg, while option 3 goes full octopus-style with pants on EVERY branch! This is basically the neuroscience version of the "how would a dog wear pants" debate, but with way more branches to consider. The real question: would myelin sheaths count as socks?
