Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurons communicate with other cells through a combination of electrical and chemical signaling. Electrical signals, or action potentials, travel along the neuron's axon, and chemical signals, in the form of neurotransmitters, are released at synapses to communicate with other neurons or muscle cells.
