Where is the synapes located?

Answer 1

A synapse is the junction in between neurones where the original electrical impulses being used to send messages to and from receptor and effector, must be converted into a chemical form and cross a gap between the dendrite and axon terminal. This gap is also commonly known as a synaptic cleft.

Now since these synapses are used for neurons to communicate with each other, since neurons cannot communicate directly. Neurones occur all over the body as parts of the nervous system so therefore so too must synapses occur lest the presence of the neurones would be pointless.

SUMMARY : Synapses occur throughout the body, wherever there are senses present.

Answer 2

Synapses are located at the junction between two neurons, where they communicate with each other by transmitting electrochemical signals. These connections can be found throughout the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord, as well as in the peripheral nervous system.
