Solution

The correct option is C Dendrites
The electrical impulses from cell 1 are transmitted via the synaptic knob, which is received by the extending structures in the subsequent nerve cell called dendrites. Once the information is collected by the dendrites, it passes the impulse to the next other neurons, and thereby communicating the information all across the body.
