What else can I help you with?
Do neurotransmitters pass directly from the axon to the dendrite?
No, neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal into the synaptic cleft between the axon terminal and the dendrite. They then bind to receptor sites on the dendrite to transmit signals from one neuron to another.
What is the space between dendrite and an axon called?
guskeyga
What is the tiny space between each axon tip and the next dendrite or muscle called?
The tiny space between each axon tip and the next dendrite or muscle is called a synapse. At the synapse, electrical signals from the axon are transmitted to the dendrite or muscle through the release of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters.
What receives neuron messages and sends them to the cell body?
The dendrite receives a stimulus and conducts the nerve impulse toward the cell body.
What anatomical characteristic determines wether a particular neuron is classified as unipolar bipolar or multipolar?
The location of dendrite and axon: If dendrite and axon emerge from same process, the neuron is unipolar. If dendrite and a single axon emerge from opposite ends of the soma, the neuron is bipolar. If the neuron has more than 2 dendrite it is called multipolar.
Do neurotransmitters pass directly from the axon to the dendrite?
No, neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal into the synaptic cleft between the axon terminal and the dendrite. They then bind to receptor sites on the dendrite to transmit signals from one neuron to another.
What is terminal branch of axon?
dendrite
What is the gap between a dendrite and an axon tip called?
The gap between a dendrite and an axon tip is called a synapse. It is a small junction where neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal and received by the dendrite to transmit signals between neurons.
What is the space between the dendrite and axon?

What Neuron with one axon and one dendrite?
jj
What is the space between dendrite and an axon called?

What are the main part of the neuron?
Axon, nucleus, and dendrite
The structure that recevies an impulse from the dendrite is the?
Cell body.Impulses a received in the dendrite, go through the cell body and out to the axon, where they are transmitted to the next dendrite. Easy way to remember it, it's the alphabet backwards - Dendrite, Cell Body, Axon
What are the three main part of a neuron?
Axon, nucleus, and dendrite
What is the space between the axon of one cell a a dendrite of another is?
The space between the axon of one cell and a dendrite of another is called the synaptic cleft. This small gap is where neurotransmitters are released from the axon terminal of one neuron and received by receptors on the dendrite of another neuron, allowing for communication between the two cells.
What is the difference between a nerve dendrite and a nerve axon structurally?
The nerve axon is the main nerve from where the dendrites originate.
