A secretory synapse is a type of synapse where the presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters into the extracellular space rather than across a synaptic cleft to act on a postsynaptic neuron. This communication occurs through volume transmission, allowing for more widespread and diffuse signaling compared to conventional synaptic transmission. Examples include neurosecretory cells in the hypothalamus that release hormones into the bloodstream.
What else can I help you with?
Space between nerve cells is called?
The space between nerve cells is called a synapse. It is the junction where electrical signals are transmitted from one nerve cell to another through neurotransmitter molecules.
What releases neurotransmitters into the synapse?
Neurotransmitters are released into the synapse by the presynaptic neuron.
What neuron is before a synapse?
The synapse consists of the two neurons, one of which is sending information to the other. The sending neuron is known as the pre-synaptic neuron (i.e. before the synapse) while the receiving neuron is known as the post-synaptic neuron (i.e. after the synapse).
What is the point where two nerve processes meet?
The point where two nerve processes meet is called a synapse. At the synapse, a chemical or electrical signal is transmitted from one neuron to another, allowing for communication between nerve cells in the nervous system.
What is the small space between one neuron and the next is called?
A synapse, chemical signals called neurotransmitters cross these gaps, carrying on the signal.
What is the junction point between neurons?
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
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.
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 plural of synapse?
The plural of synapse is synapses.
Neurons connect together at a?
Synapse Synapse
What is the junction where the axon terminal of a sending neuron communicates?
The question isn't clear enough. Does it mean the part that sends info. through the neuron (the axon)? Or does it mean the part that sends information to other neurons (the synapse)?
What is the function of the secretory system?
The secretory system does not really exist. There is a secretory mechanism that is part of the endocrine system, and that secretes hormones into the blood stream.
What is the connection between neurons called?
A synapse.
What is sentence with the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between a neuron.
What type of synapse uses neurotransmitter?
Chemical Synapse
The site of intercellular communication between neurons is the?
the synapse
When was Synapse Gaming created?
Synapse Gaming was created in 2003.
