Detailed explanation-1: -The space between an axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another neuron is called the (c) synaptic cleft. The synaptic cleft is part of the overall synapse, but refers strictly to the physical space that occurs between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another, where neurotransmitters will diffuse across.
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: -Chemical neurotransmitters help the impulse “jump” across the space between the cells. What is the space between a dendrite and an axon called? Synapse.
Detailed explanation-4: -synaptic node; CORRECT-Yes, the space between the terminal button and dendrite of a synapse is called the synaptic cleft.
