Answer 2

Answer: neurotransmitters

Explanation:

The neurotransmitters are the chemicals which are released at the synaptic cleft or synapse present between the two neurons. These are the chemical messengers which carries the signals from one neuron to other and helps in transmission of the information. The chemical molecules of the neurotransmitters usually diffuse across the synaptic cleft and they bind to the receptors of the postsynaptic cells.
