Question

question 10 of 10 what sends neurotransmitters toward the next neuron? a. body tissue b. neural end point c. axon d. endocrine system

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we analyze each option:

  • Option A: Body tissue is a general term for cells grouped together, not related to sending neurotransmitters between neurons.
  • Option B: "Neural end point" is not a standard term for the structure that sends neurotransmitters. The correct term related to this function is the axon terminal (part of the axon), so this is incorrect.
  • Option C: The axon is the part of a neuron that transmits electrical impulses (along with neurotransmitters at the axon terminal) toward the next neuron (or target cell). Neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal (of the axon) into the synapse to communicate with the next neuron.
  • Option D: The endocrine system uses hormones for communication, not neurotransmitters between neurons.

Answer:

C. Axon
