What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates?

The question isn't clear enough. Does it mean the part that sends info. through the neuron (the axon)? Or does it mean the part that sends information to other neurons (the synapse)?

What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates with a receiving neuron?
Synapse
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 the opening across one neuron communicates with another neuron is known as what?
Synapse
What is the opening across which one neuron communicates with another neuron known as?
Synaptic cleft
What are functions of synaptic junction?
To "connect" two neurons, (or a neuron and a muscle cell), by providing a space between an axon terminal of one neuron and a dendrite of another neuron (or a muscle cell), so neurotransmitters that are released by an axon terminal can diffuse across that space to reach the dendrite (or muscle cell) and either initiate the possibility of the second neuron to fire or cause a muscle cell to contract.
What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates with a receiving neuron?
Synapse
What is synapses?
A synapse is a small gap at the end of a neuron that allows information to pass from one neuron to the next.
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
Describe the path an impulse would take for a reflex reaction?
Sensory neurons are responsible for sending the initial message. First to a local neuron, which in turn communicates with a motor neuron. Therefore it is causing a reflex.
What is the opening across one neuron communicates with another neuron is known as what?
Synapse
Which of the following is not a neuron-neuron synapse?
neuromuscular junction
What is the opening across which one neuron communicates with another neuron known as?
Synaptic cleft

When calcium ions enter the synaptic terminal?
they cause vesicles containing neurotransmitter molecules to fuse to the plasma membrane of the sending neuron.
What is the place where one neuron communicates with another?
The synapse.
The tiny space between the axon terminal and the dendrite of another neuron is called the?
Synaptic Cleft.
What type of neuron would you expect to find at a neuromuscular junction?
Motor neuron
