Now the next natural question is, what happens at the neuron to neuron junctions?

Likewise, not all electrical transmission is mediated by gap junctions, and these forms involve different specialized structures.

These areas are named triple junctions and can be found in several places across the world today.

Some major railroad junctions served by several different railroads had a separate clock for each railroad, each showing a different time.

Chemical synaptic transmission involves the release of specific molecules, neurotransmitters, which diffuse through the intercellular space and interact with specific receptors located on an adjacent neuron.

It takes the children to residential streets, separate bicycle paths, as counter flow in a one way street, to traffic lights controlled junctions, and roundabouts.

Across the Mauritanian capital Nouakchott, at junctions and under trees, you will see children known as Al Mudat , aged between 4 and 14 years, carrying empty tomato cans begging pedestrians for some money.

Settlers from Gush Etzion and Ofra blocked roads at the Gush Etzion and Beit El junctions for more than an hour, preventing the vehicles of Arab residents from passing through. (Ha apos aretz, 15 September 1993)

Types There are three main types of blood capillaries Continuous Continuous capillaries are continuous in the sense that the endothelial cells provide an uninterrupted lining, and they only allow smaller molecules, such as water and ions to pass through their intercellular clefts.

In general, the exchange of information between the billions of neurons that make up the neuronal forest takes place through two types of highly specialized structures chemical synapses (the majority) and so called gap junctions (a substrate of one class of electrical synapse).
