Detailed explanation-1: -The Synapse The place where the axon of one neuron meets the dendrite of another is called a synapse. Synapses are also found between neurons and other types of cells, such as muscle cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Synapse – The junction between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another, through which the two neurons communicate.
Detailed explanation-3: -There is a small gap between the axon terminal of the presynaptic neuron and the membrane of the postsynaptic cell, and this gap is called the synaptic cleft.
Detailed explanation-4: -Neurons are separated by junction areas known as synapses, areas where the terminal buttons at the end of the axon of one neuron nearly, but don’t quite, touch the dendrites of another. The synapses provide a remarkable function because they allow each axon to communicate with many dendrites in neighbouring cells.
