Instead, communication between nerve cells occurs mainly through the release of chemical substances into the space between the axon and dendrites (Figure 5). This space is known as the synapse. When neurons communicate, a message, traveling as an electrical impulse, moves down an axon and toward the synapse.
Figure 2:1 The neuron,or nerve cell, is the functional unit of the nervous system. The neurons has proceses called dendrites that receive signals and an axon that transmits signals to another neuron.The cell body, also called the soma, is the metabolic center of the neuron.. Communication between neurons is the foundation for brain function. Understanding how neurotransmission occurs is crucial to understanding how the brain processes and integrates information. Interruption of neural communication causes changes in cognitive processes and behavior.
