what are the differences between pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neuron?

Yes. A synapse by definition is the space (gap) between one neurons terminal buton and another neurons dendrites. So, the neuron with the terminal buton end is known as the pre-synaptic neuron and the neuron after the synapse is known as the post-synaptic neuron.


What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates with a receiving neuron?

Synapse


What is the space between 2 neurons where electrical and chemical signals jump from neuron neuron?

It's a 'bridge' where the neurotransmitters jump from one neuron to the other. It is called synapse. This is a simple notion that I have about this subject. For a complete review involving this part of the brain and how it works see the link to "Neuron" below.


How is a nerve specialised to carry out its function?

A nerve cell is called a neuron. The neuron has dendrites that receive impules from the previous neuron and send it to the cell body and an axon that transmits the impulse to the next neuron. There is a space between one cell's axon and the next cell's dendrites called a synapse. Neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal to carry the impulse across the synapse.


The tiny space between the axon terminal and the dendrite of another neuron is called the?

Synaptic Cleft.


What is the space between one neuron and the next is?

What is sentence with the synapse?

A synapse is the gap between a neuron.


What is the space between two neurons called?

The space between the ending of one neuron and the communication with the next neuron is called the synapse, or sometimes it is called the synaptic gap or synaptic cleft. But synapse is the common term.


The space between two neurons or between a neuron and a receptor is known as a?

A Synapse is the space between two neurons or between a neuron and a receptor organ. A single neuron can have a few, or several hundred synapses.


What is synapses?

A synapse is a small gap at the end of a neuron that allows information to pass from one neuron to the next.


What happens at the synapse between two neuron?

At the synapse, the electrical impulse between the two neutrons at synapse set of chain chemical reactions which create a chemical impulse at the synapse.
