Chemical neurotransmitters.
Examples of 'classical neurotransmitters' include acetylcholine, dopamine, serotonin, noradrenaline and GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid).
a nerve is best describe as
Electrical
A nerve impulse passes from an axon terminal of one neuron to another neuron across a synaptic gap.
An electrial nerve impulse travels across a synapse by diffusion. The neurotransmitter substance from the pre-synaptic cleft travels across the synapse via diffusion. This is then received by receptors in the post synaptic cleft
Synapse
It diffuses across a small gap called a synapse between the two nerve cells. It is passed as a neurotransmitter (in chemical sacs). They reach the end of one cell and the impulse is converted into neurotransmitters, which are released from that cell, diffuse across the gap, and land on the receptor site, where they are converted back into electrical impulses.
Synapse? Dendrite? Dendritic spine? Or, "You could maybe a better answer to your question get if you re-stated it less confusingly as?" ie, perhaps, "Where are the receptor sites involved in transmitting a nerve impulse LOCATED?"
neurotransmitter carries the nerve impulses from neuron to neuron across a synapse
Neurotransmitters send the impulse across the synapse
NEUROTRANSMITTER is responsible for transmission of nerve impulses.Eg.dopamine,acetylcholine etc.
A nerve impulse passes from an axon terminal of one neuron to another neuron across a synaptic gap.
An electrical impulse travels along a nerve until it hits a synapse, where it causes the release of chemicals (neurotransmitters) which migrate across the synapse. At the other side , these neurotransmitters activate receptors which cause an electrical signal to continue along the nerve.

synapse
The distance across a nerve synapse is 20 nanometres or 2x10-8 metres
An electrial nerve impulse travels across a synapse by diffusion. The neurotransmitter substance from the pre-synaptic cleft travels across the synapse via diffusion. This is then received by receptors in the post synaptic cleft
Synapse
It diffuses across a small gap called a synapse between the two nerve cells. It is passed as a neurotransmitter (in chemical sacs). They reach the end of one cell and the impulse is converted into neurotransmitters, which are released from that cell, diffuse across the gap, and land on the receptor site, where they are converted back into electrical impulses.
Via chemical messangers that cross the synapse.
