What is term for the junction of one neuron and the other neuron known as? What does the end of first neuron contain? |
|
Answer» junction of one neuron (NERVE cell) and the other neuron is called ‘synapse’.2) The END of first neuron (pre-synaptic) contains neurotransmitters.It is very important in neuronal function, as it transmits the signals from one neuron or to another. The neuron which from which the signals pass is called pre-synaptic neuron and the one which receives them is post-synaptic neuron.The axonic end of the the pre-synaptic neuron is bulged and is called ‘synaptic knob’. The gap between the pre and the post-synaptic membranes is the 'synaptic cleft'. The end of pre-synaptic neuron contains neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers of the body. They are carried in synaptic vehicles to transmit the signals across. Note that, synapses are also present between from neurons and muscle cell as well as gland cells.
