A single axon usually transmits electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons. Electrical messages ordinarily travel in only one direction: Information comes into a cell through a dendrite, is processed in the cell body, and passes through the axon.he electrical charge in the neuron travels down the axon by means of a chemical process that is different from, and much slower than, a household electrical current.
