Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When an impulse originates in a presynaptic neuron,the impulse reaches the vesicles,where chemicals (neurotransmitters)are stored in the synaptic bouton.
Neurons are not physically continuous with one another.The region between adjacent neurons is called a synapse.
The synaptic cleft is the space between the neurons.
Neurotransmitters attach to the receptor.
