Explanation

Correct option is C, Use neurotransmitters. In Synapse, the accurate description is Use neurotransmitters, and that is what you should commit to memory.

Then Use neurotransmitters is the answer you can defend. Check yourself by covering the options and writing the answer first, then matching the letter — that builds confidence. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto Use neurotransmitters. Remember that physiology questions reward precise language: name the process, the location, and the outcome, then match that to the option text.
