Information in living organisms is transmitted through genes, which carry the genetic code, hormones, which are chemical messengers that regulate physiological processes, and neurotransmitters, which are chemical messengers that transmit signals across a chemical synapse, such as a neuromuscular junction, from one neuron (nerve cell) to another 'target' neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell.
