Question

Neurotransmitters transmit action potentials across a(n) ____ in the form of a(n) ____.​
A) ​axon terminals; chemical signal
B) dendrites; chemical signal​
C) ​neuronal cell bodies; electrical signal
D) ​the cytoplasm of axons; potential energy source
E) ​dendritic vesicles; trigger potential

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurotransmitters are chemicals released by neurons at the axon terminals to transmit signals across a synapse (the gap between neurons) to another neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell, hence the correct answer is "axon terminals; chemical signal."
