Growth Filipodia Expansion Chemical Stimulus Axons Cones Tips

Original
axons have growth cones at tips containing filipodia
filipodia extends, causing expansion of internal cytoskeleton within the growth cone 
direction of expansion controlled by chemical stimulus from surrounding cells 
chemical stimulus can be chemoattractant or chemorepellant signals 
axon growth cone navigates until target cell reached 
Title describe the growth of axons in immature neurons
