Neurons from Dorsal Root Ganglia | AIPGMEE Preparations

All of the following features are seen in neurons from dorsal root ganglia, except 

A. They have centrally located nuclei
B. They are derived from neural crest cell
C. They are multipolar
D. They contain lipofuscin granules



Ans. C. They are multipolar 
o Neural tube forms the CNS, whereas, neural crest cells form the PNS peripheral nervous system.  
o Collection of neuron bodies in the PNS is called as ganglion. Hence ganglia are derivatives of NCCs.
