Neurons communicate with one another at junctions called synapses. At a synapse, one neuron sends a message to a target neuronâanother cell. Most synapses are chemical; these synapses communicate using chemical messengers. Other synapses are electrical; in these synapses, ions flow directly between cells.
How do the parts of the brain communicate? The brain is a communications center consisting of billions of neurons, or nerve cells. Networks of neurons pass messages back and forth among different structures within the brain, the spinal cord, and nerves in the rest of the body (the peripheral nervous system).
