The tiny gap between neurons where nerve impulses are sent from one neuron to another.  It is where communication occurs between an axon and dendrite

• synapse

• axon terminal

• impulse

• myelin

This is the term referring to the electrical charge that travels down an axon when a neuron is firing and engaged

• Resting Potential

• Action Potential

• Threshold

• Refractory Period

What is the chemical used by a neuron to transmit an impulse across a synapse to another nerve cell?

• Neurotransmitters
• Synapse
• Threshold
• Impulse

Which of the following is the correct order of the direction of a message?

• Dendrite-Cell Body-Axon-Synapse
• Synapse-Cell Body-Axon-Dendrite
• Dendrite-Synapse-Cell Body-Axon
• Axon-Cell Body-Dendrite-Synapse

This part of the neuron stores then releases neurotransmitters into the synapse.

• Axon 
• Dendrite
• Myelin Sheath
• Axon Terminal

A nerve cell that is the basic working unit of the brain and nervous system which processes and transmits information

• axon
• neuron
• dendrite
• neurotransmitter

What does the neuron's nucleus do?

• Contains the DNA of the neuron

• Releases neurotransmitters into the synapse

• Carries information from the cell body to other neurons.

• Controls speed of electrical signal through the axon

What does the neuron's Cell Body do?

• Carries information from the cell body to other neurons.

• Provides electrical power for the neuron

• Protects and nourishes the nucleus.

• Controls speed of electrical signal through the axon

What does the neuron's Axon do?

• Controls the actions of the neuron

• Produces food for the neuron

• Carries information from the cell body to other neurons.

• Controls speed of electrical signal through the axon

What does the neuron's Myelin Sheath do?

• Controls the actions of the neuron

• Produces food for the neuron

• Carries information from the cell body to other neurons.

• Surrounds and insulates the axon
