Which substances are secreted at the endings of nerve cells?

Neurotransmitters are the substances that are secreted at the endings of nerve cells to transmit signals to other nerve cells or target cells. These neurotransmitters can include molecules such as dopamine, serotonin, and acetylcholine.


What is the chemical secreted into a gap between neurons at a synapse?

There is not just one chemical secreted into synapses (the gaps between neurons); instead, there are many chemicals secreted from the terminal buttons of neurons into the synapses. They are called "neurotransmitters."


Two major neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system?

Chemical messengers that carry the message across the synaptic gap?

Amongst the neuro-transmitter substances, Acitylcholine is there which is secreted in the synaptic region of axons and muscle-fibres since there is no phyiscal gap between them. Their main function is to pass the stimulation to the nerve fibre.

When electrical signal reaches end of nerve fiber a chemical what is secreted?

When the action potential (electrochemical signal) reaches the end of the nerve, calcium channels open, causing synaptic vesicles containing neurotransmitters to bind with the neuronal membrane. When this happens, the neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft (process is called exocytosis). Once in the synaptic cleft, they can bind with postsynaptic neuron or muscle cell receptors.


What releases neurotransmitters into the synapse?

Neurotransmitters are released into the synapse by the presynaptic neuron.
