Synapses occur at synaptic cleft (or also called as "synaptic gap"). The location of "synaptic cleft" depends on the types of synapses:
- axo-dendritic synapse : between axons and dendrites
- axo-somatic synapse : between axons and cell bodies
- axo-axonic synapse : between axons and axons
- dendro-denritic syanpse : between dendrites and dendrites

What is the junction point between neurons?
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
What is the name of the region where two neurons are in done contact is known as?
synapse is that junction through which impulse can be transmitted from one neuron to another.
What is a synapse and how is information transmitted at the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between two neurones where messages can be sent.
Junction where one neuron meets another called?
Synapse
What location does a neuron transfer an impulse to another cell?
It depends on what the next structure is. If it is another neurone, then it is a synapse. If it is skeletal muscle, then the it is a neuromuscular junction. If it is any other type of muscle, then it is a myoneural junction.
What kind of cells does a synapse occur?
nerve cells
Does the synapse occur between nerve cells?
I wouldn't use the word "occur" since a synapse is a structure, not an event, but yes, it is located between nerve cells, or more specifically, it is where the dendrites of two nerve cells meet.
Why are skin cells under going mitosis continuously?
in what phase of meiosis does synapse occur ?
What is the junction point between neurons?
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
What is the name of the region where two neurons are in done contact is known as?
synapse is that junction through which impulse can be transmitted from one neuron to another.
What is the space between two adjacent nerve cells?
its known as the synapse. Through the synapse is where impulses travel from brain cell to brain cell.
How are synapses adapted for diffusion?
The synapse releases a chemical that can diffuse across the gap between two neurones. The synapse has a large surface area, which means diffusion of the chemical can occur at a higher rate.
Space between nerve cells is called?
Are you meaning between the buttons of the first nerve cell and the dendrites of the second one? If so, then it is called the synapse or synaptic cleft!
Neurons connect together at a?
Synapse Synapse
What is the plural of synapse?
The plural of synapse is synapses.
What is a synapse and how is information transmitted at the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between two neurones where messages can be sent.
What type of synapse uses neurotransmitter?
Chemical Synapse
