Detailed Solution

Concept: The neuron, a specialised cell created to transmit information to other cells of the nerve, muscle, or gland, is the brain's primary functional unit.
Cells within the nervous system, called neurons, interact in unusual ways. A neuron is impacted by another during electrical transmission using passive electrical methods.
The release of a chemical neurotransmitter, which diffuses another neuron in turn, is caused by the potential shift in chemical transmission in one of the neurons. Myelin sheath development is a result of schwann cells.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
