**Sort the Sequence of Events Happening When a Neuron is Stimulated**

1. **Stimulus reaches the membrane of a dendrite.**
2. **Stimulus spreads throughout the soma.**
3. **Stimulus travels along the axon.**
4. **Stimulus reaches the synaptic knob.**

This sequence outlines the pathway of a neural impulse through different parts of a neuron. The impulse initiates at the dendrites, travels through the neuronal cell body (soma), moves down the axon, and finally reaches the synaptic knobs where it can transfer to another neuron. Visual indicators in the form of up and down arrows suggest the ability to rearrange these steps in an interactive manner.
