<P> The soma ( cell body ) of each pseudounipolar neuron is located within a dorsal root ganglion . The axon leaves the cell body ( and out of the dorsal root ganglion ) into the dorsal root , where it splits into two branches . The central branch goes to the posterior ( dorsal ) horn of the spinal cord , where it forms synapses with other neurons . The peripheral branch travels through the distal dorsal root into the spinal nerve all the way until skin , joint , and muscle . </P>
where are unipolar neurons found in spinal cord
the distal dorsal root
