SYNAPSE
Synapse. Synaptic contact and nerve impulse. Representation of the nerve impulse transmission of a neuron synapse A (top) to a dendritic button of a neuron B (bottom). Vesicles release glutamate (green balls) that fix on the receptors (purple) that open the sodium channels and enable the Na+ (+) ions to penetrate the dendritic button. (c) Jacopin
