Answer: An Action potential facilitates the transport of information from presynaptic neuron to postsynaptic neuron during electrical synapse.

Explanation:

Action potential is the change in voltage of membrane which is as a result of ions flow in and out of neurons. An action potential is a means neurons transport information in electrical synapses. An action potential facilitates the presynaptic neuron to transport neurotransmitters which bind to the postsynaptic neuron during electrical synapses.
