The type of synapse that has connexons is called a gap junction. Gap junctions are specialized intercellular connections that allow direct communication between adjacent cells through channels formed by connexons, which are composed of protein subunits called connexins. These synapses enable the passage of ions and small molecules, facilitating rapid signaling and coordination between cells, typically found in cardiac and smooth muscle tissues, as well as in some neurons.
What else can I help you with?
What is the junction point between neurons?
A synapse is the junction or a point of close contact between two neurons.
What location does a neuron transfer an impulse to another cell?
It depends on what the next structure is. If it is another neurone, then it is a synapse. If it is skeletal muscle, then the it is a neuromuscular junction. If it is any other type of muscle, then it is a myoneural junction.
What is the name of the region where two neurons are in done contact is known as?
synapse is that junction through which impulse can be transmitted from one neuron to another.
What type of membrane potential is generated at the synapse on the postsynaptic membrane?
It can be an excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) or an inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP), depending on the synapse. The EPSP depolarizes the membrane, while the IPSP hyperpolarizes it.
What is a synapse and how is information transmitted at the synapse?
A synapse is a structure that allows communication between neurons. Information is transmitted across the synapse through the release of neurotransmitters from the presynaptic neuron, which then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, leading to changes in the postsynaptic neuron's electrical activity.
What type of synapse uses neurotransmitter?
Chemical Synapse

What type of chemicals moves across the space between two nerve cells?
chemical synapse
What is the space between two adjacent nerve cells?
its known as the synapse. Through the synapse is where impulses travel from brain cell to brain cell.

What is the plural of synapse?
The plural of synapse is synapses.

What is the connection between neurons called?
A synapse.
What is sentence with the synapse?
A synapse is the gap between a neuron.
