What else can I help you with?
What is the connection between neurons called?
A synapse.
What do we call the connections between the nerve cells?
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.
A synapse between an axon terminal and a neuron cell body is called what?
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.
What is the junction called between 2 communicating neurons?
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.
What is the junction point between neurons?
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
What is sentence with the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between a neuron.
What is the difference between Neuron and synapse?
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.)
What is the Greek word for synapse?
synapse / synapsis < Greek σύναψη / σύναψις < συν- (con-) + άπτειν (to touch) = conjunction, connection
The site of intercellular communication between neurons is the?
the synapse
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 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 space between two adjacent nerve cells?
its known as the synapse. Through the synapse is where impulses travel from brain cell to brain cell.
