cell body, continues down the axon, and finally reaches the axon terminal. At the axon terminal, the impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters to communicate with other neurons or muscles.
Bouton does not belong as it refers to a swollen region along an axon where synapses are found, while axon terminal, synaptic knob, and axon collateral are all parts of the structure of a neuron.
The structure at the end of an axon that produces neurotransmitters is called the synaptic terminal or synaptic bulb. It contains vesicles filled with neurotransmitters that are released into the synaptic cleft to communicate with the next neuron or target cell.
The ion that enters the axon nerve terminal to trigger neurotransmitter release is calcium (Ca2+). When an action potential reaches the nerve terminal, voltage-gated calcium channels open, allowing calcium ions to flow into the cell and initiate the process of exocytosis of neurotransmitter-containing vesicles.
Yes, Axon terminals and terminal buttons are different terms for the same structure at the end of the neuron that releases neurotransmitters to communicate with other neurons or target cells.
It reaches the synapse and sends neurotransmitters to start a new impulse to the next neuron
cell body, continues down the axon, and finally reaches the axon terminal. At the axon terminal, the impulse triggers the release of neurotransmitters to communicate with other neurons or muscles.
it travels through the dendrite to the synaptic terminal to the axon
An axite is any of the terminal branches of an axon. (An axon is a usually long and single nerve-cell process that usually conducts impulses away from the cell body.
Arevbranching fibers at the end of the axon that lead the nervous impulse from the axon to the synapse
neuro transmitter is essential for the transmission of nerve impulses in nerve fibres.it is a chemical which is present in the axon terminal bulb(ending of a neuron).
One word is "neuritical," which refers to structures related to neurons' axons and dendrites.
The single long thin extension of a nerve cell that ends with terminal end bulbs is called an axon. The axon is responsible for transmitting electrical impulses away from the cell body to other neurons, muscles, or glands.
When one neuron communicates with another, the nerve impulse travels down the axon of the presynaptic neuron, reaches the axon terminal, triggers the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These neurotransmitters then bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron's dendrites, initiating a new nerve impulse in the postsynaptic neuron.
When an action potential reaches the axon terminal, it triggers the opening of voltage-gated calcium channels. Calcium ions enter the axon terminal, leading to the fusion of neurotransmitter-containing vesicles with the synaptic membrane. The neurotransmitter is then released into the synaptic cleft where it can bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron.
Nerve impulses are transmitted down the axon and leave the neuron via the terminal bouton at the synaptic interface, releasing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to affect the post-synaptic cell..
axon hillock = where cell body meets the axon axon bulb = end of the axon...lies very close to the dendrites of another neuron so impulses can pass over the synapse. AP Biology student *
