The rounded end of the axon is called the axon terminal or synaptic terminal. It is where the axon makes connections with other neurons or target tissues, facilitating the transfer of neurotransmitters. This structure plays a crucial role in transmitting signals across synapses, allowing for communication within the nervous system.

What is a large guitar called?
Jumbo Guitar is a Guitar bigger in size, than the usual ones. Jumbo Guitars are mainly used to get a louder sound, often called "Concert" guitars. They have a bigger body and depending on the woods used can be deeper in sound on the low strings. The normal Jumbo is 41 inches long. Has a wider body at the base end or bridge end about 17 inches across rounded larger end 20 inches from butt end to neck end of the body and about 13 inches on the narrow end.
What is the wavelength of a radio photon from an AM radio station that broadcasts at 820?
Wavelength = (speed) divided by (frequency) =300,000,000 meters per second / 820,000 = 365.6 meters (rounded)-- 1,199.5 feet (rounded)-- 0.227 mile (rounded)
What does binary and ternary form mean in music?
Binary form showcases a two part melody commonly displayed as: AB Sometimes there exists what we call "rounded binary" where the first theme reccurs (ABA) albiet with a slight change. Ternary is a three part melody where the beginning returns at the end (ABA) This may seem similar to rounded binary but there are a few notable disparities. Binary=AB Ternary=ABA

What is the term used to describe the rounded areas on the ends of the axon terminals?
The term used to describe the rounded areas on the ends of the axon terminals is "synaptic end bulbs" or "synaptic boutons". These structures contain neurotransmitters that are released into the synapse to communicate with the next neuron.
Is and axon bulb and an axon hillock the same thing?
axon hillock = where cell body meets the axon axon bulb = end of the axon...lies very close to the dendrites of another neuron so impulses can pass over the synapse. AP Biology student *
What is the end of a motor neuron called?
Axon terminal
What are found at the end of each axon?
Axon terminals, also called synaptic terminals or terminal boutons, are found at the end of each axon. These structures are responsible for transmitting signals to the dendrites of neighboring neurons or to a target cell. At the axon terminals, neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft to facilitate communication between neurons.
What is the difference between the terminal button and the axon terminal?
The terminal button, also known as the synaptic knob, is a small structure at the end of an axon that releases neurotransmitters into the synapse during neuronal communication. The axon terminal refers to the broader region at the end of the axon that includes the terminal button and the surrounding structures involved in synaptic transmission. While both terms are often used interchangeably, the axon terminal encompasses the entire end section of the axon, whereas the terminal button specifically refers to the site of neurotransmitter release.
What does the axon bulb do?
It starts the transmission of a neural signal from one neuron to another.An axon ends in an axon terminal, which ends in a small rounded tip called the axon bulb. Each terminal lies very close to either a dendrite or a cell body of another neuron, and the combination of the end of the first neuron, the beginning of the next, and the space between them is known as a synapse; when a neural impulse reaches the axon bulb, it is stimulated to release chemical messengers called neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft (gap), which diffuse over to the second neuron, conveying the signal to the second neuron.
What are the small swellings at the end of a neuron called?
synaptic knobs (or axon terminals<--more commonly used name)
What does an axon end in?
An axon typically ends in small branches called axon terminals. These terminals are responsible for transmitting signals to other neurons or muscle cells through structures called synapses.
What is an axon termin?
An axon terminal is the structure of a neuron (a single cell of the central or peripheral nervous system) at the end of it's axon that forms a synapse with another neuron. Generally, the axon terminal is the point at which a neuron passes information to the neurons with which it is connected.
What is an axon-terminal?
An axon terminal is the structure of a neuron (a single cell of the central or peripheral nervous system) at the end of it's axon that forms a synapse with another neuron. Generally, the axon terminal is the point at which a neuron passes information to the neurons with which it is connected.
What is axon terminals?
An axon terminal is the structure of a neuron (a single cell of the central or peripheral nervous system) at the end of it's axon that forms a synapse with another neuron. Generally, the axon terminal is the point at which a neuron passes information to the neurons with which it is connected.
What is the meaning of axon knob?
The axon knob, also known as the presynaptic terminal, is the end of the axon of a neuron that forms a synapse with another neuron or a muscle or gland cell. It stores and releases neurotransmitters to communicate signals to the target cell.
