A single axon can have multiple branches, allowing it to make synapses on various postsynaptic cells. Similarly, a single neuron can receive thousands of synaptic inputs from many different …

This video discusses synapses, where neurons communicate with target cells. It differentiates between two types of synapses: chemical and electrical. It also explains the role of the …

There actually are certain neurons where there isn't any gap--electrical synapses connect directly because electrical signals cannot travel through a gap. Chemical synapses need the synaptic …

In the article on synapses, we discussed how synaptic transmission works. Here, we’ll focus on neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers released from neurons at synapses so that they …

Neuronal synapses questionsWelcome to Khan Academy! So we can give you the right tools, let us know if you're a...

Synapses between neurons are either excitatory or inhibitory – and that all comes down to the neurotransmitter released. Excitatory neurotransmitters cause the signal to propagate - more …

These connections, known as synapses, are the sites at which information is carried from the first neuron, the presynaptic neuron, to the target neuron (the postsynaptic neuron).

A single axon can have multiple branches, allowing it to make synapses on various postsynaptic cells. Similarly, a single neuron can receive thousands of synaptic inputs from many different …

ARE SYNAPSES WITH NUEROTRANSMITTERS ALWAYS OPENED WITH VOLTAGE GATED CALCIUM CHANNELS? there are multiple types of ion channels how do I keep track of them. …

This process involves changes in synapses and neurons, leading to potentiation or depression of information flow. It's most active during development, but continues throughout life, with …
