A synapse is the connection between a dendrite and an axon.
A synapse.
An axo-axonal synapse is what a connection specifically between one axon and another axon is called. The general term for a connection between neurons is SYNAPSE, and typically is between an axon and a dendrite.
The synapse between an axon terminal and a neuron cell body is called an axosomatic synapse. This is where the axon terminal of one neuron forms a connection with the cell body of another neuron.
The junction between two communicating neurons is called a synapse. At the synapse, electrical signals called action potentials are converted into chemical signals in the form of neurotransmitters, which then travel across the synaptic cleft to relay the signal to the next neuron.
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
A synapse is the gap between a neuron.
A neuron is a nerve cell. A synapse is a gap between the sending and receiving neurons, where there are neurotransmitters responsible for transporting chemicals to the receiving neuron. (A neurotransmitter is a chemical messenger.)
synapse / synapsis < Greek σύναψη / σύναψις < συν- (con-) + άπτειν (to touch) = conjunction, connection
the synapse
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.
A synapse, chemical signals called neurotransmitters cross these gaps, carrying on the signal.
its known as the synapse. Through the synapse is where impulses travel from brain cell to brain cell.
