C.Neurotransmitters act at synapses, whereas hormones travel through the bloodstream

Explanation:

The primary distinction between neurotransmitters and hormones lies in their mode of signaling and their target areas:

1.Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that are released from neurons into the synaptic cleft (the gap between neurons or between a neuron and its target cell). They act locally to transmit signals across synapses to adjacent cells, such as other neurons, muscle cells, or gland cells.

2.Hormones, on the other hand, are secreted by endocrine glands into the bloodstream and travel over long distances to reach their target cells. They can act on a wide ...
