Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The synapse or synaptic cleft helps to carry information in the form of neurotransmitter that may be stimulating chemicals such as epinephrine and nor epinephrine, conducting chemicals such as acetylcholine and inhibitory chemical such as serotonin and GABA.
