Answer:

d. axon

Explanation:

Neuron is the basic building block of brain and the central nervous system. They are specialized cells which transmit chemical as well as electrical signals.

<u>Axon is a part of neuron which carries electrical impulse from cell body to structures at the opposite end of neuron. </u>

<u>It is a long and slender projection of neuron which conducts action potentials (electrical impulses) away from body of the cell.  </u>

<u>Function of an axon is to transmit the information to the different neurons to different muscles and to different glands.</u>

How might the body respond if it is getting neurotransmitters from an outside source
viva [34]

When the human body receives a neurotransmitter from outside of the body. The first aspect to consider is if the neurotransmitter entered through the blood vessels by injection or by oral intake. When the neurotransmitter is in the blood stream can reach the receptor of this neurotransmitter in the body. If the person is healthy, the receptor will receive an overstimulation so the answer will be stronger than normal quantities of the neurotransmitter. Nevertheless, the reuptake of the neurotransmitter will occur in the same way as natural neurotransmitter.
