Detailed explanation-1: -This space is called the synapse. 3. When neurons communicate, the neurotransmitters from one neuron are released, cross the synapse, and attach themselves to special molecules in the next neuron called receptors. Receptors receive and process the message, then send it on to the next neuron.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The dendrite is the part of the neuron that receives signals. Dendrites are extensions of the neuron and they surround the cell body, which is where the nucleus is located. Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers sent between cells, and these messengers bind to specific sites on the dendrite.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dendrites are specialized to receive neuronal signals, although receptors may be located elsewhere on the cell.
