The axon of the sending neuon does not actually touch the denrite of the receiving neuron. Instead there is a gap.

C'ERA UNA VOLTA UN NEURONE... STORIA DI UN GROVIGLIO CHIAMATO CERVELLO.

Gli organismi animali, come le meduse, i pesci, i bradipi o gli esseri umani, sono quasi tutti dotati di alcune cellule speciali: i neuroni. Queste cellule amano comunicare: sono connesse tra loro e si sono specializzate nel trasmettere ed elaborare gli stimoli interni ed esterni. Dalla loro comparsa, circa 600 milioni di anni fa, i neuroni sono diventati sempre più numerosi e in alcune specie hanno iniziato a raggrupparsi in intricatissimi grovigli di connessioni capaci di eseguire compiti sempre più complessi. Correre, saltare, percepire gli odori, o elaborare un'idea o un progetto: tutto passa attraverso l'intricata rete di neuroni che chiamiamo cervello. Ma come funziona un neurone? Scopriamolo viaggiando a bordo del tram della scienza tra esperimenti e inganni per mettere alla prova il nostro cervello!

Eyes are organs that detect light, and convert it to electro-chemical impulses in neurons. The simplest photoreceptors in conscious vision connect light to movement.[1][broken citation] In higher organisms the eye is a complex optical system which collects light from the surrounding environment; regulates its intensity through a diaphragm; focuses it through an adjustable assembly of lenses to form an image; converts this image into a set of electrical signals; and transmits these signals to the brain, through complex neural pathways that connect the eye, via the optic nerve, to the visual cortex and other areas of the brain. Systems with resolving power have come in ten fundamentally different forms, and 96% of animal species possess a complex optical system.[2] Image-resolving eyes are present in molluscs, chordates and arthropods.[3]

Inside every adolescent brain, 86 billion neurons connect and collide to produce the most frustrating, chaotic and exhilarating changes that will ever happen to us.
#LYTMindYourHead
Lyceum Youth Theatre and Traverse Young Writers present Mind Your Head, a double bill of performances which examines the hot topic of mental wellbeing for young people today.
Each evening show will feature Brainstorm, exploring the complexities of the adolescent brain in a unique performance conceived by a playwright, a neuroscientist and partially devised by the LYT cast themselves.
Brainstorm will be paired with a selection of short scenes by the Traverse Young Writers who have responded to themes of the science and biology behind emotions, and nature verses nurture
What does happiness mean? Is it material or emotional? Controlled by circumstances or temperament?
