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 are specialized junctions between neurons called?
Synapse
Nervous tissue is composed of cells called?
neurons
Neurons with the ability to monitor the environment are called what?
Neurons with the ability to monitor the environment are called?
The junction between separated strands of DNA is called what?
replication fork
What are the communicating sites between to neurons called?
synapses
The junction between a motor neurons axon and the muscle cell membrane is called a neuromuscular junction or a?
The junction between a motor neruon's axon and the muscle cell membrane is called a neuromuscular junction or a myoneuraljunction?
What is the junction between the axon and the dendrites?
The space between two connecting neurons is called a synapse.
The gap between two communicating neurons is terrmed?
This gap is called the synaptic cleft.
The junction between a motor neurons axon and the muscle cell membrane is called?
neuromuscular junction or myoneural junction
What is the space junction between two neurons called?
Synaptic cleft
What do motor neurons attach to?
neuromuscular junction
What are the Chemicals that cross the synaptic gap and bind to receptors on another neuron called?
Synapse is a narrow gap containing communicating junction between two neurons where an axon terminal comes near contact with dendrite terminal of next neuron. A narrow fluid filled space, called synaptic cleft, occurs between the two.As the impulse reaches the presynaptic knob, it stimulates release of neurotransmitter into the cleft.
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.
Gap between axon terminal and muscle cell?
The gap between the axon terminal and muscle cell is called the synaptic cleft. It is defined as the small gap, measured in nanometers, between an axon terminal and any of the cell membranes in the immediate vicinity.
What is the point called where two neurons meet?
The space between two neurons is a synapse.
The small spaces between neurons where neurotransmitters are released are called alveoli?
The SYNAPSE is the very small space between two neurons and is an important site where communication between neurons occurs.
