Neurons transmit signals to the central nervous system. The brain processes this information to initiate a response. Two neurons communicate with each other through the ( axon , dendrite, synapse) . The ( cerebrospinal cord, glial cell, neurotransmitter) is released at the site to initiate action potential and carry the signal through the body.

Answer:

synapse

neurotransmitter

Explanation:

Neurons are the basic units for the transmission of signals to the central nervous system. The two neurons are connected through the syanpse. Synapse is the space or junction between two nerve cells, or neurons.

The neuron receives signals through dendrites and two neurons  communicate with each other through a chemical called neurotransmitter, which is released at the end of a nerve fibre and carry the signal through the body.

Hence, the correct answers are synapse and neurotransmitter.
