Synaptic Transmission. In a chemical synapse, the pre and post synaptic membranes are separated by a synaptic cleft, a fluid filled space. The chemical event is involved in the transmission of the impulse via release, diffusion, receptor binding of neurotransmitter molecules and unidirectional communication between neurons. The neurotransmitter termination can occur in three ways - reuptake, enzymatic degradation in the cleft and diffusion.
Pride in Accomplishment: The Interstate H-3 Project. Hawaii, America's 50th state, is known around the world for gentle trade winds and tropical beauty. While Hawaii takes pride in these natural wonders, we are also proud of our human achievements. One truly spectacular accomplishment is the completion of the Interstate H-3 freeway on the island of Oahu. H-3, 37 years in the making, was officially opened on Dec.12, 1997.
If I remember correctly, the tour operator said it was a new highway. Upon coming out of the tunnel the green cliff rose up in front of us and it took my breath away. I looked at the map of Oahu and couldn't figure out if it was the Wilson tunnel or the Pali tunnel. Would any of you know what tunnel this could be, as I sure would like to rent a car and go through it again.
