Answer:

neurotransmitters

Step-by-step explanation:

varicosities release neurotransmitters when the neuron is stimulated

varicosities are multiple swellings

varicosities are where axons of postganglionic fibers in the autonomic nervous system enter a given tissue

varicosities release neurotransmitters when the neuron is stimulated

varicosities release neurotransmitters along a significant length of the axon

varicosities release neurotransmitters over a large surface area of the effector tissue.
