THE SYNAPSE
... A presynaptic element, an axon, and a postsynaptic element, for example a dendritic spine, are in close apposition at the synapse but not in direct contact. The pre- and postsynaptic membranes are separated by a gap, the synaptic cleft. Chemical transmitters bridge this gap by diffusing from release ...
