When the binding of a neurotransmitter to a dendrite will result in?

The binding of a neurotransmitter to a dendrite will cause one these three things to happen:excitement (stimulation)inhibition (stop activity)modulation (change activity by slowing it or increasing it)It all depends on the neurotransmitter. 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.

A synapse consist of?

A synapse is the connection between two neurons. It consists of the synaptic cleft (the physical gap between one neuron's axon and the other's dendrite). Neurotransmitters cross the gap from the axon to the dendrite and affect whether the next neuron fires.


What is the tiny space between each axon tip and the next dendrite or muscle called?

The tiny space between each axon tip and the next dendrite or muscle is called a synapse. At the synapse, electrical signals from the axon are transmitted to the dendrite or muscle through the release of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters.
