Neurons communicate by either chemical or electrical synapses. By far the predominant method is chemical though. The neuron releases a neurotransmitter like acetyl choline, glutamate, glycine and others to which the postsynaptic neuron or cell responds to.
Synapses are the contact points where one neuron communicates with another. The dendrites are covered with synapses formed by the ends of axons from other neurons. Neurons are cells within the nervous system that transmit information to other nerve cells, muscle, or gland cells.

How is an impulse transmitted from one neuron to the next?
Neurons communicate primarily in two ways: (1) electrical communication and (2) chemical communication. Neurons communicate electrically using gap junctions between neurons where electrical impulses are sent directly from one neuron to another. This is method is used for local communication as the electrical signal degrades over larger distances. Neurons communicate chemically using chemicals called neurotransmitters which are ejected from one neuron into a space between neurons (called the synapse) and are then absorbed or taken up by other neighboring 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.
1 Neurons communicate with other neurons and stimulate both?
electrical and chemical impulses.
Neurons communicate with other neurons and stimulate both?
muscles and glands.
What are in neurons?
Neurons are nerve cells. Neurons in the brain are involved in thinking and perceiving and consciousness and control of the body, and neurons elsewhere in the body communicate with the brain.
What chemicals are released from the synaptic knob?
Neurotransmitter are means by which neurons communicate with one another. There are more than 30 compounds known to be neurotransmitters, and dozens of others are thought to be so.
What are neurons in body?
Neurons are nerve cells. Neurons in the brain are involved in thinking and perceiving and consciousness and control of the body, and neurons elsewhere in the body communicate with the brain.
One cell creates and releases chemicals that travel to a second cell and quickly induce that cell into action. This diagram represents part of the?
It would be the way that the nervous system works or the way that neurons communicate with one another.
What does an interneuron do in the CNS?
An interneuron is also called an association neuron. Its job is to communicate with other neurons.
What do the pathways in the brain do?
They allow neurons to communicate with each other
What are cells that are modified to transmit signals from one place to another?
Neurons are the cells that carry signals from one neuron to another neuron, a muscle, or a gland.
What connects the Neurons in the brain at the intersection?
Synapses are connections between neurons through which "information" flows from one neuron to another.
