Synaptic Transmission. Introduction Neurons receive information from sensory organs, send information to motor organs, or share information with other neurons. The process of communicating information is very similar, whether it is to another neuron or to a muscle or gland cell.However, by far the largest number of neuronal connections is with other neurons. The rest of this tutorial therefore focuses on inter-neuronal communication.he transmission of information is accomplished in two ways: 1  Electrically: the neuron is directly adjacent to other neurons. 2  Chemically: there is a space (the synaptic cleft) between the axon terminus and the adjacent neuron.
To err on the side of caution, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) advises pregnant women to limit their caffeine intake to less than 200 milligrams per day, which is about one 11-ounce cup of coffee (See the chart below to get a sense of the amount of caffeine in common beverages and foods.)
Between 150 and 200 milligrams is considered safe in most studies, but many doctors recommend pregnant women avoid caffeine altogether. Thatâs because no matter how long caffeine stays in the body of the mother, it might stay even longer in the baby. The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology found that when women drink 200 milligrams or more of caffeine, they double their risk of miscarriage. However, other studies dispute that.
