The long, fibre like part of a neuron that transmits neural information away from the soma to other neurons or cells is known as the
axon
dendrute
axon terminal
synapses
This insulating material forms a layer around the axon of a neuron. It enables electrical signals to travel down the axon at higher speeds.
