Transmitters activate the synapses, electrical junctions in the body that stimulate the brain, nerves, and muscle cells to become active and communicate.
A neurotransmitter is a chemical produced by the body that conveys nerve impulses across the gaps (synapses) between nerve cells.
We conclude that from their early functioning, synapses from sensory neurons are strong and from sensory pathway interneurons are weak.
There are probably many subtle factors to consider beyond sheer size, including neurotransmission and the number of synapses per neuron.
Here, the neuron terminal forms fine branches, which make a network of close contacts, called synapses, with other neurons.
