Question 3 • 670417 Psychology S1 - MOSELEY, MELISSA K

Which of the following statements about nervous system communication is not correct?

Answer
A
The nervous system uses electrical and chemical signals to communicate internally.
B
The nervous system uses neurons to communicate internally.
C
The nervous system uses glia cells to communicate internally.
D
The nervous system uses endocrine glands to communicate internally.

Explanation

The nervous system communicates mainly through neurons, which use electrical impulses and chemical signals. Glial cells support and regulate nervous system activity and can also participate in signaling. Endocrine glands communicate primarily by releasing hormones into the bloodstream, so saying they are used by the nervous system for its internal communication is not correct.
