What else can I help you with?
Action potentials trigger the release of chemicals in the terminal buttons called?
neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft to relay signals to the next neuron in the communication pathway.
Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron are called?
nuerotransmitter
Which part of neuron release or send chemical messengers?
The part of the neuron where neurotransmitters are released from is the axon terminal, and they are released into a small space between neurons called the Synapse.
Just what does pass from neuron to the muscle cells?
via chemicals called neurotransmitters, expressed at sites called synapses, which are tiny gaps between a neuron and another neuron or a muscle cell.
Chemicals that facilitate the movement of impulses at synapses?
Neurotransmitters the are means by which neurons communicate with one another. There are more than 30 compounds known to be neurotransmitters, and dozens of others are thought to be so. You will only find them in the peripheral nervous system as the central nervous system uses mainly electrical signals.
What releases neurotransmitters into the synapse?
Neurotransmitters are released into the synapse by the presynaptic neuron.
Where are neurotransmitters released?
Neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal of a neuron into the synaptic cleft, which is the small gap between the axon terminal and the dendrite of a neighboring neuron. neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the receiving neuron, transmitting the signal.
Where are neurotransmitters stored in the neuron?
Neurotransmitters are stored in small sacs called vesicles within the axon terminals of a neuron.
What is it called when neurotransmitters are recycled?
The process of recycling neurotransmitters is known as reuptake. This is when neurotransmitters are taken back up into the presynaptic neuron after they have been released into the synaptic cleft.
What are neurotransmitters that affect a neuron's response to other neurotransmitters called?
These are typically known as neuromodulators; they can either change the rate at which a neurotransmitter is released, or alter the response to a certain neurotransmitters.
Where in a neuron are neurotransmitters stored?
Neurotransmitters are stored in small sacs called vesicles located at the end of the axon terminal in a neuron.
Chemical substance released at the axon terminals are called?
the signals are known as Action pottential. and the chemical substances or signal molecules are known as Neurotransmiters
