Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The synapse is the junction between the axon of one neuron and the dendrites of another neuron. This is where communication and transmission of signals occur between neurons. A is incorrect because the myelin sheath is a covering on the axon and not a location for synaptic transmission. B is incorrect because the cell body is not directly involved in the transmission of signals between neurons. C is incorrect because the communication between neurons occurs at the synapse, not between the cell bodies.
