The central cell body is the process part of a neuron and contains the neuron's nucleus, associated cytoplasm, organelles, and other cell structures.

Where does neural process occur?

The first two neuronal functions, receiving and processing incoming information, generally take place in the dendrites and cell body.

What are the neuronal processes?

The two types of neuron processes are called dendrites and axons. Dendrites are motor neurons that are short and have a large surface area for receiving signals from other neurons. Dendrites convey incoming messages towards the cell body and are therefore called the receptive input region.
