Action potentials and synapses

When an action potential reaches the presynaptic terminal, it causes neurotransmitter to be released from the neuron into the synaptic cleft, a 20–40nm gap ...

Anatomy of the synaptic cleft

The synaptic cleft is a junction or small gap at which neurons communicate with each other. The synapse is a specialized connection between cells that ...

Chemical and Electrical Synapses

The synapse or “gap” is the place where information is transmitted from one neuron to another. Synapses usually form between axon terminals and dendritic ...

Chemical synapse

The synaptic cleft—also called synaptic gap—is a gap between the pre- and postsynaptic cells that is about 20 nm (0.02 μ) wide. The small volume of the cleft ...

Diagram of synaptic transmission

(3) This causes synaptic vesicles to fuse with the terminal membrane, releasing neurotransmitter into the gap between neurons, known as the synaptic cleft.

Synapse

In an electrical synapse, the presynaptic and postsynaptic cell membranes are connected by special channels called gap junctions that are capable of passing an ...

Synaptic Gap

Synaptic Gap. Dopamine bridges synaptic gaps between neurons to perpetuate electrochemical waves of action potentials, like any neurotransmitter. From: ...

The synapse (article)

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.
