The synapse.
Synapse
The opening across which one neuron communicates with another neuron is called a synapse. At the synapse, chemical signals called neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron, which then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron to transmit the signal.
The Synapse, also called the synaptic cleft.
When one neuron communicates with another, the nerve impulse travels down the axon of the presynaptic neuron, reaches the axon terminal, triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron's dendrites, initiating a new nerve impulse in the postsynaptic neuron.

It is called an Interneuron
Neurons are cells that are modified to transmit signals from one place to another in the body. They have specialized structures, such as axons and dendrites, that allow them to conduct electrical impulses over long distances.

The axon terminals of a neuron are responsible for relaying signals from one neuron to another neuron or to an effector, such as a muscle or gland. When an action potential travels down the axon, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters at the axon terminals, which then stimulate the next neuron or target cell.
A neurotransmitter.
The microscopic space that separates the axon terminal of one neuron from the dendrites of another neuron is called the synaptic cleft. Neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal into the synaptic cleft to communicate with the dendrites of the neighboring neuron.
