Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The specialized junction for the communication of axon of one neuron to another is known as synapse. There are three components of the synapse: presynaptic cell, post synaptic cell and the synaptic cleft. Presynaptic cell is the neuron that sends the impulse, postsynaptic cell is the neuron that receives the impulse and the space between these two neurons is known as synaptic cleft.
