the area comprising one neurons axon terminal, the synaptic space, and the dendrite or cell body of the next neuron is called the:
synapse.
receptor site.
terminal button.
ion channel.
The synapse is the junction between two neurons, consisting of an axon terminal of one neuron, the synaptic space, and the dendrite or cell - body of the next neuron. Receptor sites are on the postsynaptic membrane for neurotransmitter binding. Terminal buttons are at the end of axons and release neurotransmitters. Ion channels are proteins that allow ions to pass through the cell membrane.
