I've been looking for the answer to this question for a take-home test I'm doing (I haven't been able to find a clear answer either in my textbook or online).. There is a graph in my textbook (The Developing Person: Through the Life Span, 7th ed., Kathleen Berger, pg. 131) that suggests that for audio/visual synapses, development occurs rapidly from birth to about 2 years, and peaks at about 3 months of age.
So, in short, I'm not sure, but I think about 3 months of age.
True
Axodendritic synapses occur between the axon terminal of one neuron and the dendrites of another neuron, while axosomatic synapses occur between the axon terminal and the cell body (soma) of another neuron. In terms of structure, axodendritic synapses are more common and allow for communication between neurons, while axosomatic synapses are less common and are involved in regulating the firing of the postsynaptic neuron.

Synapses are seen more in grey matter because dendrites meet with axonites in grey matter and dendrite is a part of grey matter.
A synapse is the junction in between neurones where the original electrical impulses being used to send messages to and from receptor and effector, must be converted into a chemical form and cross a gap between the dendrite and axon terminal. This gap is also commonly known as a synaptic cleft. Now since these synapses are used for neurons to communicate with each other, since neurons cannot communicate directly. Neurones occur all over the body as parts of the nervous system so therefore so too must synapses occur lest the presence of the neurones would be pointless. SUMMARY : Synapses occur throughout the body, wherever there are senses present.

Different types of synapses, like axodendritic, axosomatic, and axoaxonic, play specific roles in how neurons communicate in the nervous system. Axodendritic synapses occur between the axon terminal of one neuron and the dendrites of another, allowing for the transmission of signals. Axosomatic synapses connect the axon terminal to the cell body, influencing the neuron's activity. Axoaxonic synapses regulate the release of neurotransmitters at the axon terminal, modulating communication between neurons. Overall, these different types of synapses help facilitate the flow of information in the nervous system.
Synapses are important for the functioning of the nervous system because they allow for communication between neurons. This communication is essential for transmitting signals and information throughout the brain and body, enabling processes such as thinking, feeling, and movement to occur.
