I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how you showcase how different parts within the nerve system! This is way better than any those figurative illustrations on the textbook!!
we cannot always distinguish them, but it is mainly based on the fact that dendrites branch and contain ribosomes (Nissl substance) as shown in the video, while axons do not branch and we can observe the so-called axon hillock that no longer contains ribosomes (like the entire axon). Since ribosomes are basophilic structures, axons should be therefore more eosinophilic.
This video is better than 10 lectures and histology courses at university!

Perfect work 😀😀🐛
Glad you like it ! 🤗🐛
And how to differentiate axons from dendrites in a histological section? They look the same at the slide (in color and thickness)... thanks!
