it is sent through the neurotransmitters
At the synaptic terminal an electrical impulse will trigger the migration of vesicles containing neurotransmitters toward the presynaptic membrane.

The liquids that bridge the gap across the synapse are?
nuerotransmitters
What is Diffusion of transmitters across synaptic cleft?
It is when neurotransmitters are released form one neuron and travel across the synapse, which is a gap between two neuron, in order to stimulate the second neuron
What is the space between two adjacent nerve cells?
its known as the synapse. Through the synapse is where impulses travel from brain cell to brain cell.
How are synapses adapted for diffusion?
The synapse releases a chemical that can diffuse across the gap between two neurones. The synapse has a large surface area, which means diffusion of the chemical can occur at a higher rate.
What helps carry nerve impluses across the synapse?
Neurotransmitters encased in vesicles and diffusing across the synaptic gap.
What is the name of the tiny gap the neurotransmitter has to diffuse across to reach the membrane of the postsynaptic neuron?
the synapse
Neural transmission across a mammalian synaptic gap is accomplished by?
impulses causing the release of a chemical signal and its diffusion across the synapse.
Does ionic current exist in chemical synapse?
not within the synaptic CLEFT (gap) itself, across which neurotransmitters diffuse, but yes, in the axon & axon terminal leading up to the synapse, and in the dendrite coming from the synapse.
What is sentence with the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between a neuron.
What is the point at which a nerve impulse is sent from one nerve cell to another?
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.
How does an impulse cross a synaptic gap between two nerve cells?
Neurotransmitters send the impulse across the synapse
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.
