A synapse is some type of structure located on a neuron, that makes the exange of information between neurons possible.


The two main part of the structure are the neurotransmitter transporter and the receptors, which send and recieve information respectively and are found in every nervous cell.


I have pasted an image below, so you can see how a synapse looks.



Hope it helped,


Happy homework/ study/ exam!
