Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The neurons carry messages in the form of electrical signals called electrical impulses or nerve impulses. The dendrites pick up the impulses from receptor and pass them the cell body, and then along the axon to its end.
At the axonal end, electrical impulse sets off release of some chemicals that crosses the gap or synapse and start a similar impulse in dendrite of the next neuron.
