Neurotransmitters are released and go into the synaptic cleft.

What is the structure at the end of an axon that produces neurotransmitters?
The axon is a single process extending from the axon hillock, sometimes covered by a fatty layer called a myelin sheath that conducts nerve impulses away from the cell body of the neuron.Distal tips of axons are telodendria, each of which terminates in a synaptic knob.
What does not belong axon terminal synaptic knob bouton axon collateral?
axon collateral
Is the Axon terminal the same as the terminal buttons?
yes
What is an axon and what is its job?
An axon is the extension of a neuron and it sends nerve impulses away from the cell. In simpler words it is the "tail" of a nerve cell which sends messages to other cells.
What are the 4 parts of neuron?
axon terminal myeline sheathdendritesneruo transmitters
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
In which direction does the message travel in the neuron?
it travels through the dendrite to the synaptic terminal to the axon
What is axite?
An axite is any of the terminal branches of an axon. (An axon is a usually long and single nerve-cell process that usually conducts impulses away from the cell body.
What are the function of the nerve fibers?
Arevbranching fibers at the end of the axon that lead the nervous impulse from the axon to the synapse
What region of the cell secretes neurotransmitters?
an axon terminal
What major mineral is required for transmission of nerve impulses?
neuro transmitter is essential for the transmission of nerve impulses in nerve fibres.it is a chemical which is present in the axon terminal bulb(ending of a neuron).
What is a word ending in ical that is to do with axons and dendrites?
One word is "neuritical," which refers to structures related to neurons' axons and dendrites.
Where do nerve impulses leave the neuron?
Nerve impulses are transmitted down the axon and leave the neuron via the terminal bouton at the synaptic interface, releasing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to affect the post-synaptic cell..
What is the structure at the end of an axon that produces neurotransmitters?
The axon is a single process extending from the axon hillock, sometimes covered by a fatty layer called a myelin sheath that conducts nerve impulses away from the cell body of the neuron.Distal tips of axons are telodendria, each of which terminates in a synaptic knob.
Why is the chemical synapses be release when a neural impulse reaches the end of an axon?
Neurotransmitters are released in order to transmit the message from the axon terminal to the other neuron by having said synapse "jump" to the neighboring dendrite.
The part of a neuron that conducts impulses away from its' cell body is called?
An axon will carry nerve impulses away from the cell body.
What is the name of the area where nerve impulses arises?
receptive region?
