What takes place at the synapse?

Biology

Sedbober [7]2 years ago

The most commonly found synapses in humans are chemical synapses. This occurs due to electrical activity in the presynaptic neurons triggering the release of neurotransmitters.

The neurotransmitters disperse across the synaptic cleft to then bind themselves to specialized receptors of postsynaptic neurons. Once this occurs, the neurotransmitters then either excites or inhibits the postsynaptic neuron. Exciting the postsynaptic neuron leads to a firing of action potential (electrical impulses), whereas inhibiting the postsynaptic neuron prevents the transmission of a signal.

Answer:i think At a chemical synapse, one neuron releases neurotransmitter molecules into a small space (the synaptic cleft) that is adjacent to another neuron. The neurotransmitters are contained within small sacs called synaptic vesicles, and are released into the synaptic cleft by exocytosis.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

C. fungus-like protist

Explanation:

The fungus-like protists are organisms that seem like plants, but are much more closely related to the animals. They tend to be parasitic, thus they use a host in order to be able to get the needed nutrition. Unlike the producers, the fungus-like protists are not capable of performing the process of photosynthesis, thus they do not produce their own food. Considering these characteristics, it is no wonder that they can mostly be found on dead plants from which they can feed upon.
