What else can I help you with?
The narrow space between the synaptic terminal and the muscle fiber is the?
synaptic cleft, where neurotransmitters are released by the synaptic terminal and bind to receptors on the muscle fiber to trigger a muscle contraction.
What is synaptic terminal?
Cells that help create and assist the function of synapse's. In layman's terms brain cells.
How do axon terminals maintain their synaptic position at dendrites?
Synaptic adhesion molecules span the synaptic cleft, holding the axon terminal to the dendrite. There are a number of different kinds of synaptic adhesion molecules, which typically have a portion that starts slightly inside an axon terminal and protrudes outside more than halfway into the synaptic cleft, meeting and over-lapping and sticking against a companion sam protruding similarly from a dendrite, thus maintaining the relative position of the axon terminal and dendrite.
What part of neuron facilitate synaptic tranmissionof signal to anather neuron?
The part of the neuron that facilitates synaptic transmission to another neuron is the axon terminal, also known as the synaptic terminal. When an action potential reaches the axon terminal, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters from synaptic vesicles into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron's membrane, allowing the signal to be transmitted. This process is essential for communication between neurons in the nervous system.
What is at the end of an axon terminal branch?
At the end of an axon terminal branch, you will find structures called synaptic boutons or synaptic terminals. These structures contain neurotransmitter vesicles that store and release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to communicate with the next neuron or target cell.
What is the function of normal synaptic vesicles in neuronal communication?
Normal synaptic vesicles in neuronal communication function to store and release neurotransmitters, which are chemical messengers that transmit signals between neurons. When an action potential reaches the synaptic terminal, the vesicles release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft, allowing for communication between neurons.
What is contained inside a synaptic terminal?
A synaptic terminal contains synaptic vesicles filled with neurotransmitters, which are chemical messengers that transmit signals between neurons. It also includes mitochondria for energy production, endoplasmic reticulum for protein synthesis, and other organelles necessary for synaptic function.

Where is neurotransmitter stored?
Neurotransmitters are stored in synaptic vesicles located at the terminals of presynaptic neurons. When an action potential reaches the terminal, these vesicles release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to facilitate communication between neurons.
What are the tiny sacs found within the terminal button which release chemicals into the synapse?
The tiny sacs in the synaptic knob are known as synaptic vessels. The synaptic vessels release chemicals into the bloodstream with each synapse.
The tiny space between the axon terminal and the dendrite of another neuron is called the?
Synaptic Cleft.

Space between synaptic end bulbs of axon terminal and sarcolemma?
The space between the synaptic end bulbs of an axon terminal and the sarcolemma is called the synaptic cleft. It is a small gap that neurotransmitters traverse to transmit signals between neurons and muscle cells. The neurotransmitters released from the axon terminal bind to receptors on the sarcolemma, triggering muscle contraction.
What is at the end of an axon terminal branch?
At the end of an axon terminal branch, you will find structures called synaptic boutons or synaptic terminals. These structures contain neurotransmitter vesicles that store and release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to communicate with the next neuron or target cell.
Does synaptic transmission involve electrical information to pass from terminal button to dendrites of another neuron?
No, synaptic transmission is chemical, not electrical.
