What is the junction called between 2 communicating neurons?
The connection between two neurons is not a true connection but a gap junction that is used by neurotransmitters between them.
What do we call the connections between the nerve cells?
An axo-axonal synapse is what a connection specifically between one axon and another axon is called. The general term for a connection between neurons is SYNAPSE, and typically is between an axon and a dendrite.
What are relay neurons?
An interneuron (also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) is a neuron that forms a connection between other neurons. Interneurons are neither motor nor sensory.
What is the point called where two neurons meet?
The space between two neurons is a synapse.
The small spaces between neurons where neurotransmitters are released are called alveoli?
The SYNAPSE is the very small space between two neurons and is an important site where communication between neurons occurs.
Can undamaged neurons make new connection with damaged neurons?
yes
What are the communicating sites between to neurons called?
synapses
What are specialized junctions between neurons called?
Synapse
What is the method of communication between neurons?
is called a synapse
What does Long-term potentiation involve?
The strength of the connection between two neurons is increased when they are simultaneously stimulated.
What is the space between neurons where neurotransmitters cross called?
The synapse
Neurons that serve as links between the sensory neuron and the motor neurons?
interneurons also known as: ASSOCIATION NEURONS
