Nervous system two types of intercellular communication which are both electrical and chemical signaling
Explanation
It is noted that the nervous system uses two types of intercellular communication which are both electrical and chemical signaling—either by the direct action of an electrical potential, or in the latter case, through the action of chemical neurotransmitters such as serotonin or norepinephrine. Again, this happens when the neurotransmitters are released at the synapse and the impulse transmitted through the neuron
