This substance is called as neurotransmitter. Here it is acetylcholine.
skeletal smooth muscle neuron
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.
There is a space (synapsis) between the neuron and the muscle cell. The electrical impulse can not pass over that. Chemical neurotransmitters are manufactured by neurons in the soma, then stored in little bundles called synaptic vesicles and transferred to the synapses. The release of the neurotransmitter is required for a nerve to simulate the muscle. This is what crosses the space.
The synapse, or connection, between a neuron and striated muscle is typically a chemical one called the neuromuscular junction. The pre-synaptic terminus coming from the neuron releases acetylcholine (ACh) which triggers an opening of the ionic channels on the muscle side. The depolarization triggers calcium entry into the cytosol of the muscle and contraction.
Includes the axon terminal of a motor neuron plus the motor end plate of a muscle fiber. Is where the axons of motor nerves meet the muscle & transmit messages from the brain which cause the muscle to contract & relax.
acetycholinesterase
synaptic cleft
via chemicals called neurotransmitters, expressed at sites called synapses, which are tiny gaps between a neuron and another neuron or a muscle cell.

synapse are the microscopic gapes between the neurons where helps in passing of the chemicals from one neuron to other. A small amont of chemical substance is released from one neuron into the synapse and this chem. substance changes to electrical impluses and enters the dentrites of the other neuron.
