Jobisdone [24]3 years ago
3 0
In the nervous system, a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron (or nerve cell) to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron or to the target effector cell.——————Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that enable neurotransmission. It is a type of chemical messenger which transmits signals across a chemical synapse, such as a neuromuscular junction, from one neuron (nerve cell) to another "target" neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell.

The correct answer is E. 0

Explanation:

The deciduous dentition or baby teeth refer to the first set of teeth human have before the permanent teeth, these teeth are prevalent during infancy and include 20 teeth: 4 central incisors, 4 lateral incisors, 4 canines and 8 molars divided into 4 primary molars and 4 secondary ones.
