The Angle Stop Valve is used where the water pipe enters the room to allow for easy shut-off of water flow to the end fixture allowing for maintenance and repair without having to turn water off to the entire home.
A synapse is a connection which allows for the transmission of nerve impulses. Synapses can be found at the points where nerve cells meet other nerve cells, and where nerve cells interface with glandular and muscular cells. In all cases, this connection allows for the one-way movement of data.
The word synapse â from the Greek synapsis (ÏÏÎ½Î¬ÏÏÎ¹Ï), meaning conjunction, in turn from ÏÏÎ½Î¬ÏÏÎµá½¶Î½ (ÏÏÎ½ (together) and á¼ÏÏÎµÎ¹Î½ (to fasten)) â was introduced in 1897 by English physiologist Michael Foster at the suggestion of English classical scholar Arthur Woollgar Verrall.n many synapses, the presynaptic part is located on an axon, but some postsynaptic sites are located on a dendrite or soma. Astrocytes also exchange information with the synaptic neurons, responding to synaptic activity and, in turn, regulating neurotransmission.
