The gap between two neurons is called a
(a) Dendrite.
b) Synapse.
(c) Axon. (d) Impulse.

Answer – (b) Synapse

A dendrite is a short, branched extension of a nerve cell that serves as a pathway for the transfer of synaptic impulses from other cells to the cell body.

In vertebrates, a nerve cell or neuron’s long, slender projection known as an axon or nerve fibre normally carries electrical impulses known as action potentials away from the nerve cell body. Information is transmitted via the axon to various neurons, muscles, and glands.

An electrical signal called an impulse moves down the axon.
