Solution

The correct option is C

Nerve impulse


Nerve impulses are a way of coding information, in a similar way to FM radio, allowing information to be transmitted both quickly and accurately. Nerve impulses are transmitted through change in the concentration of sodium ions on the surface of nerve cell which happens on receiving a stimulus by receptors and then by the dendrites of neurons.
