Neurotransmission, or the transmission of messages from neuron to neuron, is made possible by neurotransmitters. The neurotransmitter must be released in order to facilitate the transmission of the message. The neurotransmitter is released from the axon terminal of one neuron and binds to the dendrites or receptors of another neuron in order for the message to be transmitted. This process is referred to as neurotransmission,

Neurotransmitters makes it possible for messages to cross the synapse of a neuron to a target receptor. They are chemical substances created by the body that transmit signals (ie, information) from one neuron to the next through contact points called synapses. When this happens, the chemical substance is released by the vesicles of the pre-synaptic neuron, crosses the synaptic space and acts by changing the action potential in the post-synaptic neuron. Today more tham 60 neurotransmitters have been discovered, among which are: dopamine, endorphin, serotonin, adrenaline, etc.

Explain how individuals living with a smoker might benefit once he or she quits smoking.

Nitella [24]

They have a lower chance of second hand smoking, which is one of the leading causes to lung cancer for non-smokers. Also if given the fact that the smoker is a spouse, they won't have the price to smoke regularly taken out of their shared salaries. Finally above, if the smoker was to quit, they have a a greater possibility to live longer, refrain from injuries (such as removed limbs, the falling out of teeth, cancer, a stoma being placed in their neck, the discoloration of teeth and nails, excessive ageing, ect.) and there forth saving the individual from mutual emotional stress of dealing with a known, or loved one going through the possible side effects in the future.
