Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Neurotransmitter molecules are released into the small space between two neurons called the synapse. This is where they bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron and transmit signals. The transporter is a protein that moves neurotransmitters back into the presynaptic neuron. The partition is not a structure involved in neuronal communication. The vesicle is a membrane-bound organelle that stores and releases neurotransmitters.
