From Internet:
Nerve impulses begin in a dendrite , move toward the cell body, and then move down the axon . A nerve impulse travels along the neuron in the form of electrical and chemical signals. The axon tip ends at a synapse.
A reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls a reflex. In vertebrates, most sensory neurons do not pass directly into the brain, but synapse in the spinal cord. This allows for faster reflex actions to occur by activating spinal motor neurons without the delay of routing signals through the brain.
