| 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|neurone]] cell and the [[Dendrites|dendrites]] of another. Electrical signals are able to continue across a chemical synapse due to the activity of [[neurotransmitter|neurotransmitters]] <ref>http://www.mind.ilstu.edu/curriculum/neurons_intro/neurons_intro.php</ref>.
