When a nerve impulse reaches the end of the axon the tiny sacs that store the neurotransmitters move to the surface and release the neurotranmistters These tiny sacs that store the neurotransmitters?

are called synaptic vesicles. They contain specific neurotransmitters that are released into the synaptic cleft when the nerve impulse reaches the end of the axon. The neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the neighboring neuron, continuing the signal transmission.


How does a signal move through a neuron?

A signal moves through a neuron by traveling along the axon, which is a long, thin extension of the neuron. The signal is transmitted as an electrical impulse called an action potential. When the signal reaches the end of the axon, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters, which then carry the signal to the next neuron.


How does a neuron send a signal to communicate with other neurons or muscles?

A neuron sends a signal through an electrical impulse that travels down its long, slender body called an axon. When the impulse reaches the end of the axon, it triggers the release of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters then cross the small gap between the neurons or between a neuron and a muscle cell, allowing the signal to be passed on to the next cell.


During neurotransmission when the electrical impulse reaches the end of the axon it crosses a gap called a?

The impulse itself does not actually cross the gap, which is called a synapse by the way, instead it stimulates the realease of a neurotransmitter from vesicles. When the neurotransmitter reaches the other side of the synapse it binds proteins on the opposing membrane and in doing so stimulates the membrane to continue the action potential on the mect cell.


How does information flow through a neuron in the human brain?

Information flows through a neuron in the human brain through a process called synaptic transmission. When a neuron receives a signal, it generates an electrical impulse that travels down its axon. At the end of the axon, the electrical impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synapse, the gap between neurons. These neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the receiving neuron, causing it to generate its own electrical impulse and continue the flow of information.

What happens when an impulse reaches the end of an axon?

It reaches the synapse and sends neurotransmitters to start a new impulse to the next neuron


Why is the chemical synapses be release when a neural impulse reaches the end of an axon?

Chemical synapses release neurotransmitters when a neural impulse reaches the end of an axon to transmit information to the next neuron. This release of neurotransmitters allows for communication between neurons and helps propagate the neural impulse across the synaptic gap to continue the signal.

What is the result of sodium ions moving across the axons membrane during an action potential?

a neural impulse(electrical impulse) is released and it travels down the axon of a neuron to the axon terminals. At the axon terminal there are sacs called synaptic vesicles which contain chemicals called neurotransmitters. When the neural impulse reaches the terminal it causes the sacs to move closer to the membrane of the axon terminal and release the neurotransmitters inside. Then neurotransmitters travel across the synaptic gap and stimulate the dendrites of another neuron and the whole process starts again.


Neurotransmitters are released from what end of an axon?

synaptic vesicles


Where on a neuron does an impulse start and end?

the impulse starts at the dendrites which is located near the cell body and ends at the synaptic terminals which are at the end of the axon.

What is the functions of neurotransmitter?

The neurotransmitters are stored in tiny sac-like structures called vesicles at the end of axons. When an impulse, or nerve signal, reaches the end of the axon, the vesicles release a neurotransmitter into the small space between the adjoining cells (synaptic gap). Neurotransmitters diffuse across the synapse and bind to receptors in the receiving cell that are specific for the neurotransmitter.


When an impulse reaches the end of a neuron it tiggers the releases of?
