Consider the given statements:
Statement I: In a neuron, Nissl’s granules are not present in dendrites.
Statement II: Unmyelinated nerve fibre is not enclosed by a Schwann cell in the peripheral neural system.
Statement III: Myelinated neurons conduct impulse at a higher velocity when compared to unmyelinated neurons.
1. Only Statement I and Statement II are correct
2. Only Statement III is correct
3. Statement II and Statement III are incorrect
