acetylcholine
The small space separating pre and post-synaptic neurons is called the synaptic cleft. This cleft allows for the transmission of chemical signals, known as neurotransmitters, from the pre-synaptic neuron to the post-synaptic neuron to occur. The neurotransmitters are released by the pre-synaptic neuron and bind to receptors on the post-synaptic neuron to transmit the signal.
The tiny sacs in the synapse are called synaptic vesicles. These vesicles store neurotransmitters, which are released into the synaptic cleft to facilitate communication between neurons.
Neurotransmitters are released from the nerve terminals by a specialized exocytosis process, synaptic vesicles. These are small nearly uniform capsules that join with the cell membrane to expel their contents. Release is both quantal (set amount) and mediated by calcium.
When a substance enters a neuron, it can bind to receptor sites on the neuron's membrane, triggering a cascade of events within the neuron. This can lead to changes in the neuron's electrical activity, release of neurotransmitters, or alterations in gene expression, ultimately affecting the neuron's function.
The space between the synaptic end bulbs of an axon terminal and the sarcolemma is called the synaptic cleft. It is a small gap that neurotransmitters traverse to transmit signals between neurons and muscle cells. The neurotransmitters released from the axon terminal bind to receptors on the sarcolemma, triggering muscle contraction.
synaptic cleft, where neurotransmitters are released by the synaptic terminal and bind to receptors on the muscle fiber to trigger a muscle contraction.
A synaptic cleft is the gap into which a chemical is released.
The small space separating pre and post-synaptic neurons is called the synaptic cleft. This cleft allows for the transmission of chemical signals, known as neurotransmitters, from the pre-synaptic neuron to the post-synaptic neuron to occur. The neurotransmitters are released by the pre-synaptic neuron and bind to receptors on the post-synaptic neuron to transmit the signal.
Synaptic Cleft.
The substance found in synaptic vesicles is usually neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, or glutamate. These substances are released into the synapse when an action potential reaches the axon terminal, helping transmit signals from one neuron to another across the synaptic cleft.
The gap between a neuron and its effector is called a synaptic cleft. Neurotransmitters are released from the neuron into this gap and then bind to receptors on the effector cell to transmit the signal.
neurotransmitters
Diffusion of transmitters across synaptic cleft is the process by which neurotransmitters are released from the presynaptic neuron into the synaptic cleft and then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron. This allows for the transmission of signals from one neuron to another in the nervous system.
Neurotransmitters are special chemicals that are produced and stored in synaptic vesicles. There are many different kinds and each vesicle can hold hundreds of them. When they are released, they cross the synaptic cleft and attach to a receptor site which may be on another nerve cell, a muscle cell, or a gland.
The tiny sacs in the synapse are called synaptic vesicles. These vesicles store neurotransmitters, which are released into the synaptic cleft to facilitate communication between neurons.
Synaptic cleft .
The space between the sending neuron's axon terminal and the receiving neuron's dendrite is called the synaptic cleft. Neurotransmitters are released into this space to transmit signals between neurons.
