How does a message jump across the synaptic gap and passes to the next neuron?
Nerve impulses, which are electrical, do not jump across the synaptic gap at synapses. Instead, the arrival of a nerve impulse at the axon terminal triggers the release of chemicals called neurotransmitters from the axon terminal into the synaptic gap, the nerve impulses then travel across the chemicals to the place where it needs to go to
Which is the last part of the neuron to be involved in the transmission of a neural impulse towards the next neuron?
Signalling ALONG a neuron is electrical, but signalling BETWEEN neurons is a chemical process. Neuron A 'passes' a message onto the next by releasing chemicals called neurotransmitters , which are then taken up by neuron B. The point at which these neurotransmitters are released from the neuron A is called the 'terminal bouton' and is the end of its axon. More specifically, it is the presynaptic membrane OF the terminal bouton at which the passing on of a message occurs.
What is the correct route a message takes within a neuron?
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! When a message travels within a neuron, it starts at the dendrites, moves through the cell body, and then down the axon. Finally, it reaches the axon terminals where it can pass on to the next neuron. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, each step is important in creating a masterpiece of communication in our brains.
How is the message carried from one neuron to another if there is a space between them?
This gap is called a synaptic gap and a chemical called a neurotransmitter is used as a bridge over the gap.This message is carried via neurotransmitters. There are several types. Some speed up the transmission or slow it down or even stop it. They are like chemical bridges.
Explain the communication process of neurons in the brain?
When transmitting a message, a signal travels through the neuron until the cell ends at the terminal. In order to propagate the signal to the next neuron chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) are released into the inter-neuronal space (synapse). This triggers signal initiation in the second neuron.
How does a message travel from one neuron to the next?
It travels from the brain to the Spinal Cord.
How does a message travel through a single neuron?
When a message gets sent to a neuron from the dendrite it goes through the cell body to the tip of the dendrite where it leaps to the next dendrite.
In what order does a message travel through the neuron?
A message travels through a neuron in the following order: dendrites receive the signal, the signal is passed through the cell body (soma), travels down the axon, and finally reaches the synaptic terminals where it is transmitted to the next neuron.
How does the signal travel from one neuron to the next in the human brain?
The signal travels from one neuron to the next in the human brain through a process called synaptic transmission. When an electrical impulse reaches the end of a neuron, it triggers the release of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters then cross the synapse, a small gap between neurons, and bind to receptors on the receiving neuron, causing it to generate a new electrical signal and continue the message transmission.

What effects do neurotransmitters from the neuron have on the next neuron?
The neurotransmitters from one neuron have direct effect on the next neuron. They are channels that are used to transmit messages in the nerves.
What effect do neurotransmitter from one neuron have on the next neuron?
The neurotransmitters from one neuron have direct effect on the next neuron. They are channels that are used to transmit messages in the nerves.
What is the space between two neurons called?
The space between the ending of one neuron and the communication with the next neuron is called the synapse, or sometimes it is called the synaptic gap or synaptic cleft. But synapse is the common term.
How does a signal travel down a neuron and what processes are involved in its transmission?
A signal travels down a neuron through a process called neurotransmission. When a signal reaches the end of one neuron, it triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synapse, the small gap between neurons. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the next neuron, causing an electrical signal to be generated and travel down the length of the neuron. This process involves the opening and closing of ion channels, which allow ions to flow in and out of the neuron, creating an electrical impulse that travels along the neuron's axon.

This gap is called a synaptic gap and a chemical called a neurotransmitter is used as a bridge over the gap.This message is carried via neurotransmitters. There are several types. Some speed up the transmission or slow it down or even stop it. They are like chemical bridges.
