Solution

The correct option is D End plate
The motor neurons have to transmit the response creating nerve impulse either to the muscles or to the glands.
When the motor neuron synapses with the muscle, the junction is called the motor end plate or the neuromuscular junction.
When the neuron synapses with the gland, the junction is called the neuroglandular junction.
Hence, the correct answer is option C- 'End plate'.
