Answer to Question 1

Neurotransmitters relay the electrical signals from one neuron to the next because neurons do not actually touch each other. When an electrical signal reaches the axon terminal, neurotransmitters are released. They travel across the space between the neurons (synapse) and land on the surface of the neighboring neuron, triggering the second neuron to fire, relaying the electrical impulse.

Answer to Question 2

A
