What does the word "synapses" mean?

Impulse

Gap

Link

question 3/6 - SyNAPSeS

Right!

Explanation: Synapses (gr. Σύναψις, "link") are specialized junctions through which the cells of the nervous system send signals to each other and to non-neuronal cells such as muscle or glandular cells.

question 4/6 - TypeS of synapses

What is characteristic of electrical synapses?

gap junctions

neurotransmitters

synaptic vesicle

Question 4/6 - types of synapses

Right!

Explanation: in the electrical synapse, the transmission between the first neuron and the second neuron is not produced by the secretion of an NT, as in chemical synapses, but by the passage of ions from one cell to another through gap junctions.
