| Front | roles of synapse |
|---|---|
| Back | roles of synapses - ensure impulses unidirectional (receptors only on post synoptc membrane so NT only travels towards post synoptic from pre synoptic) - allows single impulse from pre synoptic to be transmitted to multiple neurones via multiple synapses (so single stimulus can casue simult responses) - allows multiple neurones to connect via single synapse to a single postsynoptic neurone (allows impulses from all diff receptors to form 1 response) |
