A chemical synapse is the distinguishable gap (between 15-200nm wide)<ref>http://michaeldmann.net/mann13.html</ref> between the axon terminal of one neurone cell and the dendrites of another. Electrical signals are able to continue across a chemical synapse due to the activity of neurotransmitters.<ref>http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/curriculum/neurons_intro/neurons_intro.php</ref>

An electrical synapse is a physical connection between two neurones and electrical signals are able to pass straight through from one neurone to the other without the help of neurotrasmitters.<ref>http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/curriculum/neurons_intro/neurons_intro.php</ref>
