Which neurons are responsible for acting as a facilitator of communication between neurons?

Neurotransmitters are the chemical medium through which the signals move from one neuron to the next at the synapses. This is called neurotransmission and the way it is done is through electrochemical processes. A chemical message from other neurons, through dendrites causes a nerve impulse. This travels down the Axon to the terminal buttons at the end. This then releases the neurotransmitters which send a message to the next neuron. The neuron that sends the message is the pre-synaptic neuron, and the one that receives it is the postsynaptic neuron. Each neurotransmitter has a specific effect on a specific circuit. They do not all work with every receptor. This is a complicated subject to try to explain in a short statement! I have probably confused you by now.

They may be involved in more complex reflex arcs, or simply be synapses in between other neurons to be conveyed to other areas in the nervous system. Interneurons can either be sensory or motor. :)

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.
The most common form of communication between neurons is?
By electrice impose
What Interconnects neurons and communication between cerebral hemispheres?
the medulla oblongata
How is an impulse transmitted from one neuron to the next?
Neurons communicate primarily in two ways: (1) electrical communication and (2) chemical communication. Neurons communicate electrically using gap junctions between neurons where electrical impulses are sent directly from one neuron to another. This is method is used for local communication as the electrical signal degrades over larger distances. Neurons communicate chemically using chemicals called neurotransmitters which are ejected from one neuron into a space between neurons (called the synapse) and are then absorbed or taken up by other neighboring neurons.
What is the difference between Neuron and synapse?
A neuron is a nerve cell. A synapse is a gap between the sending and receiving neurons, where there are neurotransmitters responsible for transporting chemicals to the receiving neuron. (A neurotransmitter is a chemical messenger.)
What act as a facilitator of communication between neurons?
acetylcholine
What is an intraneural communication?
Communication between sensory and motor neurons.
Where is The sight of communication between 2 neurons?
Dendrite
The site of intercellular communication between neurons is?
synapse
What is the method of communication between neurons?
is called a synapse
Communication within a neuron is electrical while communication between neurons is chemical.?
yes
The site of intercellular communication between neurons is the?
the 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.
Chemical communication is carried out between neurons by substances called?
neurtransmitters
The most common form of communication between neurons is?
By electrice impose
What Interconnects neurons and communication between cerebral hemispheres?
the medulla oblongata
The point of communication between two neurons?
Interneurons are multipolar neurons that connects afferent and efferent neurons.
