"Dendrites" is a descriptor in the National Library of Medicine's controlled vocabulary thesaurus,
MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). Descriptors are arranged in a hierarchical structure,
which enables searching at various levels of specificity.
Extensions of the nerve cell body. They are short and branched and receive stimuli from other NEURONS.
