Q: What is the place called where the axon of one neuron meets the dendrite of another?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

The place where the axon of one neuron meets the dendrite of another is called a synapse . Synapses are also found between neurons and other types of cells, such as muscle cells. The axon of the sending neuron does not actually touch the dendrite of the receiving neuron. There is a tiny gap between them, the synaptic cleft ( Figure below ).

 Choices:

- uptake

- neurotransmitter

- apoptosis

- synapse


A:
synapse
