Solution

The correct option is C Both acetylcholine and noradrenaline act as neurotransmitters
Acetylcholine and noradrenaline are neurotransmitters i.e., are endogenous chemicals that transmit signals across a synapse from one neuron to another target neuron.
In the frog, the electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve releases a chemical known as acetylcholine. Acetylcholine and noradrenaline are present in frog and causes vasoconstriction in the frog's vessels.
So, the correct answer is option C.
