The answer is: All of the choices are correct.

Explanation:

  • Axodendritic: This term describes a synapse where the axon of one neuron connects to the dendrite of another neuron.
  • Axosomatic: This term describes a synapse where the axon of one neuron connects to the soma (cell body) of another neuron.
  • Axoaxonic: This term describes a synapse where the axon of one neuron connects to the axon of another neuron.
