Question

use the drop - down menus to complete the sentences. the neuron that transmits the impulse is called the presynaptic cell, and the cell receiving the impulse is called the postsynaptic cell. when a nerve impulse arrives at the axon terminal of the neuron, it triggers the release of molecules called. these molecules diffuse across the synapse and bind to receptors on the next cell. neurotransmitters stimuli neurons

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the context of nerve impulse transmission. Neurotransmitters are the molecules released from axon terminals, diffuse across synapses, and bind to receptors. Stimuli are external triggers, and neurons are the cells, not the molecules released. So the correct term is neurotransmitters.

Answer:

neurotransmitters
