PLEASE HELP ASAP!! How neurotransmitters carry nerve impulses across the synaptic cleft

Sagot :

MorganParker00

Neurotransmitters travel across the synapse between the axon and the dendrite of the next neuron. Neurotransmitters bind to the membrane of the dendrite. The binding allows the nerve impulse to travel through the receiving neuron

Another way of thinking is

Neurons talk to each other across 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 between the presynaptic axon terminal and the postsynaptic dendrite (often a spine)

Hope this helps =)

Explanation: Neurotransmitters like to travel across the synapse between the axon and the dendrite of the next neuron.  They then attach to the membrane of the dendrite. This connection makes it possible for the nerve impulse to travel through the receiving neuron.
