Synaptic transmission is chemical, while nerve impulse or axonal transmission is electrical.
Synaptic transmission, also called neurotransmission, refers to the process wherein neurotransmitters are released by a neuron to activate the receptors of another neuron. Communication between two nerve cells is accomplished by synaptic transmission.

Synaptic vesicles are found in the axon terminals of nerve cells.
the part that facilitates the the transmission of signals is collectively known as the axon but more peculiarly known as the nerve endings.
are called synaptic vesicles. They contain specific neurotransmitters that are released into the synaptic cleft when the nerve impulse reaches the end of the axon. The neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the neighboring neuron, continuing the signal transmission.
Nerve impulses are transmitted down the axon and leave the neuron via the terminal bouton at the synaptic interface, releasing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to affect the post-synaptic cell..
Myalin sheath gives insulation to the neurons. They also hasten the nerve conduction by saltatory conduction.
1. Nerve impulse reaches synaptic terminal. 2. Synaptic vesicles move to and merge with the presynaptic cell membrane of the motor neuron. 3. Acetylcholine is released into and diffuses across the synaptic cleft. 4. Acetylcholine binds to receptors on the postsynaptic cell membrane of the muscle fiber.
This is the junction between two neurons. At the one end you have the pre-synaptic membrane - the terminal end of the previous neuron, the pre-synaptic neuron - and on the other side you have the post-synaptic membrane, part of the post-synaptic neuron. Action potentials typically cross the cleft by the use of neurotransmitters. Examples include ACh (Acetyl Choline), often used in the synaptic clefts of parasympathetic neurons.
