a: Axon terminal ~
b: the root system of a tree
What: "The structure and development of a neuron is similar to that of a tree. Each neuron has one axon with many tails which are called axon terminals. Axon terminals are like the root system of a tree; locus of exchange of electro chemical impulses. They extend out from the cell body like the trunk of a tree through the axon electrochemical impulses delivered throughout the neurons."
