Communication between neurons. Benoit Zuber. Communication between neurons, or nerve cells, is the cellular basis for thinking, decision making, and control of muscular movements.Neurons are cells with a particular shape: they possess two types of long ramification, called the axon and the dendrites.The axon of one neuron is in contact with the dendrites of other neurons. These contacts are termed synapses.eurons are cells with a particular shape: they possess two types of long ramification, called the axon and the dendrites.

Special sense receptors provide for taste, smell, sight, hearing, and balance. Nerves carry all messages exchanged between the CNS and the rest of the body. Back to top. CNS: neurons, brain, spinal cord. The neuron transmits electric signals like an electric wire. The perikaryon (cell body) is the neuron central part. Dendrites, short branches, extend from the neuron. These input channels receive information from other neurons or sensory cells (cells that receive information from the environment). A long branch, the axon, extends from the neuron as its output channel. The neuron sends messages along the axon to other neurons or directly to muscles or glands. Neurons must be linked to each other in order to transmit signals. The connection between two neurons is a synapse. When a nerve impulse (electrical signal) travels across a neuron to the synapse, it causes the release of neurotransmitters.
