01
sinapse
a junction between two nerve cells, consisting of a minute gap across which impulses pass by diffusion of a neurotransmitter
Example
Neurotransmitters released into the synapse bind to receptors on the receiving neuron, facilitating the transmission of nerve impulses.
Synapses play a crucial role in information processing in the nervous system, allowing communication between neurons.
Chemical synapses are the most common type of synapse, involving the release of neurotransmitters to transmit signals.
