What is the junction point between neurons?
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
What is the name of the region where two neurons are in done contact is known as?
synapse is that junction through which impulse can be transmitted from one neuron to another.
What is a synapse and how is information transmitted at the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between two neurones where messages can be sent.
Drugs that act directly on the brain causing increased activity are?
stimulants are drugs that act directly on the brain causing increased activity.
Junction where one neuron meets another called?
Synapse
Why do chemical messengers get information from synapse?
They act as an active "bridge".
Drugs act on the neurons in the reward pathway or the?
Drugs act on the neurons in the limbic system.
Effects of drugs on the nervous system?
The effect of the drug ecstasy causes a build up of serotonin at the synapse gap. This is because the ecstasy causes a blockage at the receptor molecules, meaning the synapse chemicals (serotonin), are unable to be 'absorbed' by the receptor molecules.

Space between nerve cells is called?
Are you meaning between the buttons of the first nerve cell and the dendrites of the second one? If so, then it is called the synapse or synaptic cleft!
Where do neurotransmitters act?
They act at the end of a synapse. These are where in the nervous system (relay arc) a relay neurone meets a motor neurone. There is a gap called a synapse between these two neurones and so the only way to transmit the electrical impulse is through neurotransmitters which 'jump' across the gap whilist 'holding' on to the impulse.
What are drugs that act directly on the brain called?
neuro drugs
What is the plural of synapse?
