Impulses travel over the synapse through which of the following?
A. axon terminals
B. neurotransmitters
C. myelin sheaths
D. Schwann cells

Asked by juli9122005

Answer (2)

Impulses travel over the synapse through neurotransmitters, which are released from axon terminals and bind to receptors on adjacent neurons. Other options like axon terminals, myelin sheaths, and Schwann cells have different functions in neuron communication. Therefore, neurotransmitters are essential for synaptic transmission. ;

Impulses travel over the synapse through neurotransmitters, which are released from axon terminals. The neurotransmitters cross the synaptic cleft and bind to the next neuron, propagating the signal. Therefore, the correct answer is option B: neurotransmitters.
