Describe the process of neurotransmission

Describe the process of neurotransmission. Start with information

stimuli entering a neuron and end with how that stimulus us passed on to a neighboring neuron.

A message travels from the dendrites through the cell body and to the end of the axon. into the synapse. The neurotransmitters carry the message with them into the synapse. The synapse is the space between the axon of one neuron and the dendrites of another neuron.

There are five major steps in the chemical synapses for transmission of signals: (1) synthesis of neurotransmitter, (2) neurotransmitter storage in synaptic vesicle (quanta), (3) release of the neurotransmitter to the synaptic space, (4) binding of the neurotransmitter to the specific receptors on postsynaptic cell …
