It starts off an impulse in the next neuron . • Only one end of a neuron can make this chemical. So synapses make sure an impulse can only travel in one direction. • Synapses have two other fu ...

Neurons Communicate by Neurotransmission

When the electrical signal reaches the terminal, it cannot cross the synaptic space, or synaptic cleft, to reach the postsynaptic neuron. Ins ...
