Synapse (рд╕рд┐рдиреИрдкреНрд╕): A synapse is the junction between two neurons where the transfer of information occurs. The process involves the conversion of electrical signals in the presynaptic neuron to chemical signals via neurotransmitters, which then cross the synaptic cleft and bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, converting back into an electrical signal.
