Synapses ensure unidirectional impulse transmission, allow one impulse to spread to multiple neurons, or multiple neurons to converge onto one, enabling simultaneous and integrated responses.
تضمن المشابك نقل النبضات بشكل أحادي الاتجاه، وتسمح لنبضة واحدة بالانتقال إلى عدة عصبونات، أو لتلقي نبضات من عدة عصبونات لنهاية تشابكية واحدة، مما يسمح باستجابات متزامنة ومتكاملة.
| 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) |
