I have never heard of the term 'transmission zone' (which may be someone's personal name for what I'm about to explain) but neurons send their chemical signals across what is known as a synapse, the region where the axon of one neuron meets up with another neuron (most often a dendrite). The space between these two neurons (the non-neuron space in the synapse) is called the synaptic cleft. Through this space, neurotransmitters pass through and act on the receiving neuron once they reach it.

What is the input zone of a motor neuron?
dendrites
The part of the neuron that facilitates synaptic transmission of a signal to another neuron is?
Soma
What is the part of neuron that facilitates synoptic transmission of signal to another neuron?
synapse
The trigger zone of a neuron includes?
The axon hillock and the initial segment
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 accomplished by synaptic transmission?
Synaptic transmission, also called neurotransmission, refers to the process wherein neurotransmitters are released by a neuron to activate the receptors of another neuron. Communication between two nerve cells is accomplished by synaptic transmission.
What is the function of a relay neron?
transmission of nerve impulses from the sensory neuron to the motor neuron,located in the central nervous system.
What is the secretory zone of neuron?
The secretory zone of a neuron refers to the region where neurotransmitters are synthesized, stored, and released. It includes the synaptic vesicles that contain the neurotransmitters and the presynaptic terminal where they are released into the synaptic cleft. This zone plays a crucial role in transmitting signals between neurons and facilitating communication in the nervous system.
Does synaptic transmission involve electrical information to pass from terminal button to dendrites of another neuron?
No, synaptic transmission is chemical, not electrical.
The input zone of a neuron is the?
­The dendrites and cell body. Incoming signals from other neurons are received here.
The speed of transmission in a neuron will occur fastest if the myelin sheath around the axon is?
highly concentrated
How does the structure of a neuron reflect the function of transmitting messages or electrical signals?
the structure of the neutron allows for efficient transmission of electrical impulses in the body.
