Question

Can someone let me know if I've answered this question completely and correctly? Describe the communication between two neurons: (answer in comments)

Answer 1

well what did you write?

Answer 2

The point of communication between two neurons is called the synapses. The communication between the two neurons can be either electrically or chemically. In the electrical synapse there is a physical connection using the gap junctions.
Neurons: a specialized cell transmitting nerve impulses; a nerve cell.
Synapses: a junction between two nerve cells, consisting of a minute gap across which impulses pass by diffusion of a neurotransmitter.

Answer 3

Neurons, nerve cells that transfer information within the body, communicate with each other through the use of nerve impulses. In the nervous system, neurons transmit signals, called nerve impulses. These nerve impulses are transferred between specific locations in the body along pathways called axons. Nerve impulses are able to reach four different types of cells: other neurons, endocrine cells, exocrine cells, and muscle cells. Neurons transmit nerve impulses along pathways called axons. Information is transferred to the other neuron at the junction at the end of an axon, called a synapse. At these synapses, chemical messengers, called neurotransmitters transmit information to the receiving cell. The neuron that transmits the signal is referred to as the presynaptic cell, while the receiving cell is referred to as the postsynaptic cell. There are two types of synapses: electrical synapses, which contain gap junctions and allow electrical current to flow from one neuron to another; and the more common type, chemical synapses, which release a chemical neurotransmitter from the presynaptic neuron. When the signal is transferred to the synaptic terminal, the plasma membrane is depolarized, allowing Ca2+ to diffuse. This causes the synaptic vesicles to fuse with the membrane and release the neurotransmitter. When the postsynaptic membrane is depolarized, the membrane potential is defined as excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP). In other instances the membrane becomes hyperpolarized, which is defined as inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP).
