Solution

The correct option is D

Electric impulse will be hampered.


Synaptic vesicles are tiny sac-like structures containing chemicals called neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters help in transfer of electric impulses from axon end/axon bulbs to succesive dendrites. Their absense leads to hampering of nerve impulse eventually.
