Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron are called?
nuerotransmitter
How does a message jump across the synaptic gap and passes to the next neuron?
Nerve impulses, which are electrical, do not jump across the synaptic gap at synapses. Instead, the arrival of a nerve impulse at the axon terminal triggers the release of chemicals called neurotransmitters from the axon terminal into the synaptic gap, the nerve impulses then travel across the chemicals to the place where it needs to go to
What is the gap between a neuron and its effector?
The synaptic cleft.
The gap between two communicating neurons is terrmed?
This gap is called the synaptic cleft.
Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that travel across the?

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.
Where is the synaptic gap?
neourtransmitter
What is the small space separating pre and post-synaptic neurons?
synaptic cleft (also known as "synaptic gap")
The are sack-like structures found inside the synaptic knob containing chemicals?
synaptic vesicles
What are the tiny sacs found within the terminal button which release chemicals into the synapse?
The tiny sacs in the synaptic knob are known as synaptic vessels. The synaptic vessels release chemicals into the bloodstream with each synapse.
What gap is called into which the chemical is released?
A synaptic cleft is the gap into which a chemical is released.
What is the gap called into which the chemical is released?
A synaptic cleft is the gap into which a chemical is released.
What is the gap between a dendrite and an axon tip called?
synaptic gap
What are the Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron called?
Neurotransmitters are the chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron. These neurotransmitters play a crucial role in transmitting signals between neurons in the brain and nervous system.
What happens at a synapses?
The transfers that happens in the synapses conduct biochemical information from the neuron cells. The synapse, or synaptic cleft is the gap between to neuron cells. Nerotransmitters are chemicals that are released from one neuron (known as the pre-synaptic) and bond to receptors on the receiving neuron (known as the post-synaptic). The transfers that happens in the synapses conduct biochemical information from the neuron cells.
