A chemical impulse refers to the rapid transmission of signals in the nervous system, primarily involving the release of neurotransmitters at synapses between neurons. When a nerve impulse reaches the end of a neuron, it triggers the release of these chemicals, which cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on the adjacent neuron, facilitating communication. This process is essential for various functions, including muscle contraction, reflex actions, and the overall functioning of the brain.

Synaptic transmission is chemical, while nerve impulse or axonal transmission is electrical.
Trick question. The actual TRANSFER is a chemical event, with the release of a chemical transmitter. The ACTION of this chemical is ultimately converted into an electrical event, or impulse. So, the answer they are looking for is probably true.
Via chemical messangers that cross the synapse.
A chemical signal.
Neurotransmitters in a neuron allow a nerve impulse to be transmitted from one neuron to another by crossing the synapse and binding to receptors on the receiving neuron. This triggers an electrical or chemical signal to continue the nerve impulse along the neural pathway.
