Best Answer

No, they (sensory neurons) are either pseudounipolar or bipolar.

To memorize, remember the word "M" for Multi-unipolar, and "M" for "Motor" (fibres).

Most multipolar neurons function to integrate or process many inputs, and as motor neurons; they are sometimes called association neurons or interneurons. They have many dendrites and one axon.

The most type of neuron in the human body is?

Multipolar neurons This is the most common type of neuron, with one axon and many dendrites. Multipolar neurons are so-named because they have many (multi-) processes that extend from the cell body: lots of dendrites plus a single axon. Functionally, these neurons are either motor (conducting impulses that will cause activity such as the contraction of muscles) or association (conducting impulses and permitting 'communication' between neurons within the central nervous system).


What determine whether a neuron is unipolar bipolar multipolar?

The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
