Question

Neurotransmitters are A) small, sphere shaped containers that fuse with the cell membrane. B) protein molecules found on dendrites. C) white, fatty substances that serve to insulate axons. D) protein molecules found on somas. E) chemical messengers that carry information from neuron to neuron.

Answer 1

Chemical messengers that carry information from neuron to neuron. (Ans. E)

Step-by-step explanation:

Neurotransmitter are known as chemical messengers or any group of chemical transmitter which is released by nerve cells to stimulate neighbouring nerve cells, allowing impulses to pass from one cell to the another cell throughout the nervous system.

Neurotransmitter are stored in vesicles, which are found in the axon's terminal end, known as presynaptic terminal, and synthesized with the help of neurons. Neurotransmitter are identified by based on their molecular, and chemical properties.
