the tiny intercellular gap that separates one cell from the next‚ the information takes the form of a chemical signal. The specialized chemicals that carry the signals across the intercellular gaps‚ or synapses‚ are called neurotransmitters. The ebb and flow of neurotransmitters—neurotransmission—is thus an essential feature of the brain’s response to experience and the environment.

Neuron communication does not rely on a single entity but entrusts several different processes that involve the contribution of neuron structure‚ electrical and chemical synapse‚ as well as neurotransmitters. Nerve cells are the basic functioning component in the nervous system. Every part of the system is comprised of neurons that collect and distribute information to make the body function. All neurons consist of four main components; a soma
