Neuron A is stimulated and fires an action potential. Which of the following best describes how Neuron A will send that message to Neuron B? A) The action potential transfers from the end of Neuron A’s axon to the Neuron B’s dendrites, which are in direct contact with one another B) As the action potential reaches the end of Neuron A’s axon, the signal becomes stronger and jumps to Neuron B. C) When the action potential reaches the end of Neuron A’s axon, chemicals known as neurotransmitters are released across the synapse. D) When the action potential reaches the end of Neuron A’s axon, electrical signals are released across the synapse.
