Solution

The correct option is C Synapses
  • 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.
  • Synapses are stabilized in position by synaptic adhesion molecules (SAMs) projecting from both the pre- and post-synaptic neuron and sticking together where they overlap. Hence. Area of coming together of two neuron ends or between a dendron and axon ends is synapses.
So, the correct answer is 'synapses'.
