Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the role of the synaptic cleft? (2022)
  • Step 1: Understand that neurons are the cells in the brain and nervous system that send signals.
  • Step 2: Know that when one neuron wants to send a signal to another neuron, it needs to cross a small gap.
  • Step 3: This small gap is called the synaptic cleft.
  • Step 4: The first neuron releases special chemicals called neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft.
  • Step 5: These neurotransmitters travel across the synaptic cleft to the second neuron.
  • Step 6: When the neurotransmitters reach the second neuron, they help pass the signal along.
