AP Biology Animal Form and Function
... In most animals, the synapse between two neurons are traversed by chemicals in the following steps: 1. Calcium (Ca2+) gates open. When an action potential reaches the end of an axon, the depolarization of the membrane causes gated channels to open and allows Ca2+ to enter the cell 2. Synaptic vesicl ...
