A synapse is a tiny gap at which nerve cells (neurons) communicate with each other. Information from one neuron flows to another neuron across this small space.
congrats on reading the definition of Synapse. now let's actually learn it.
A specialized cell transmitting nerve impulses; essentially, it's a nerve cell.
These are chemical messengers that transmit signals across a synapse from one neuron to another 'target' neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell.
Receptor Site: These are specific areas on dendrites or neurons designed to receive specific neurotransmitters.
