Detailed explanation-1: -The transfer of information from neuron to neuron takes place through the release of chemical substances into the space between the axon and the dendrites. These chemicals are called neurotransmitters, and the process is called neurotransmission. The space between the axon and the dendrites is called the synapse.
Detailed explanation-2: -“Neurons communicate with each other through electrical and chemical signals, ” explains Barak. “The electrical signal, or action potential, runs from the cell body area to the axon terminals, through a thin fiber called axon.
Detailed explanation-3: -To cross the synaptic cleft, the cell’s electrical message must be converted into a chemical one. This conversion takes place when an action potential arrives at the axon tip, resulting in depolarization. The depolarization causes Ca2+ to enter the cell.
Detailed explanation-4: -The junction between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of the next is called a synapse. Depending on the nature of transfer of information, there are two types of synapses-chemical synapses and electrical synapses.
Detailed explanation-5: -Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that your body can’t function without. Their job is to carry chemical signals (“messages”) from one neuron (nerve cell) to the next target cell. The next target cell can be another nerve cell, a muscle cell or a gland.
