Question 3 • Biology

Which terms are associated with communication between neurons?

Answer
A
chemical signals, Nodes of Ranvier, synapse
B
chemical signals, synapse, neurotransmitters
C
synapse, Schwann cells, neurotransmitters
D
synapse, hormones, chemical signals

Explanation

Neurons communicate across a synapse, where one neuron releases chemical signals called neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters cross the small gap and affect the next cell. Nodes of Ranvier and Schwann cells help with nerve-fiber structure or signal conduction, while hormones are not the specific term for this communication between neurons.
