What bridge the gap between a neuron sending a message and the neuron receiving it?
neurotransmitters
What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates with a receiving neuron?
Synapse
What is the space between the sending and the receiving neuron called?
synaptic cleft
What neuron is before a synapse?
The synapse consists of the two neurons, one of which is sending information to the other. The sending neuron is known as the pre-synaptic neuron (i.e. before the synapse) while the receiving neuron is known as the post-synaptic neuron (i.e. after the synapse).
When a neuron's resting potential is occurring the neuron is what charge on the inside?
resting potiental
What is the tiny electrical charge that exists when a neuron is neither receiving nor sending information?
a resting potential
What is the difference between Neuron and synapse?
A neuron is a nerve cell. A synapse is a gap between the sending and receiving neurons, where there are neurotransmitters responsible for transporting chemicals to the receiving neuron. (A neurotransmitter is a chemical messenger.)
Parts of a multipolar neuron its order of receiving nerve impulses?
write the following parts of a multipolar neuron in the correct order(1-8) of receiving and sending the nerve impulse. Start with the dendrites as number one.
Which condition is a neuron in when the outside of the neuron has a net positive charge and the inside has a negative charge?
resting potiental
When a neuron is resting the inside of the cell membrane is?
When a neuron is resting then inside of the cell membrane is more negative than outside.
What is the spce between two neurons where the axon of a sending neuron communicates with the dendrites of a receiving neuron by using chemical messages called?
The synapse is the space between pre- and post-synaptic neurons
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.
