Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron are called?
nuerotransmitter
When a neuron responds to a particular neurotransmitter by opening gated ion channels the neurotransmitter is serving as which part of the signal pathway?
Signal Molecule Synaptic transmission is when it moves across the synaptic gap, and it then just binds to the receptor on the other side.
What are The chemicals that bridge the synaptic gap?
Chemicals that bridge the synaptic gap are called neurotransmitters.
What is the gap where neurotransmitters cross?
Neurotransmitters are formed in the cell body and transported to the axon terminal by Axonic flow of the cytoplasm via axon
The signal to excite a muscle cell must cross the neuromuscular junction by the diffusion of acetylcholine across the?
synaptic cleft
Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron are called?
nuerotransmitter
What is a synaptic gap?
This is the junction between two neurons. At the one end you have the pre-synaptic membrane - the terminal end of the previous neuron, the pre-synaptic neuron - and on the other side you have the post-synaptic membrane, part of the post-synaptic neuron. Action potentials typically cross the cleft by the use of neurotransmitters. Examples include ACh (Acetyl Choline), often used in the synaptic clefts of parasympathetic neurons.

How does an impulse cross a synaptic gap between two nerve cells?
Neurotransmitters send the impulse across 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.
The signal to excite a muscle cell must cross the neuromuscular junction by the diffusion of acetylcholine across the?
synaptic cleft
Where is the synaptic gap?
neourtransmitter
What is synaptic delay?
Synaptic delay is the period of time for neurotransmitter chemicals released from the axon terminus of the sending neuron to cross the synaptic gap by diffusion and attach to matching receptors on the receiving neuron, initiating a reaction (either stimulatory or inhibitory) in that neuron.
Gap between nerve cells?
SynapseSynapse.The gap between the axon of one nerve cell and the dendrite of another nerve cell is called the synapse. Synapses are the space into which neurotransmitters are released from the axon to act on the dendrite, and thus transmit a signal between neurons.If the axon and the dendrite are from the same cell (i.e., the neuron is making a synapse with itself), this gap is called an autapse ("auto-synapse").Synapsea synapseA synapse or synaptic gap.Its a cool name.Neat huh?synapseSynapseSynapse
What is the small space separating pre and post-synaptic neurons?
synaptic cleft (also known as "synaptic gap")
