Question

Consider the following diagram of a neuron. 
-A neurotransmitter carries the electric signal between which of the following sets of points indicated by letters?

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurotransmitters carry the electric signal across the synapse, which is the gap between the axon terminal and the dendrite of the adjacent neuron. In this diagram, the neurotransmitter is shown being released from the axon terminal (point B) and binding to the receptor site on the dendrite (point C), indicating that the signal is carried from point B to point C. Therefore, the correct choice is C.
