| A | B |
| Synapse | gap between the terminal branches of 1 neuron and the dendridites of another |
| Sensory neurons | carries impulses from receptor toward spinal cord |
| Motor neurons | carries impulses from brain and spinal cord towards effectors |
| Interneurons | relays impulses from 1 neuron to another |
| Nerves | used for the transmission of impulses from 1 part of the body to another |
| Sensory nerve | composed of dendrites of sensory neurons |
| Motor nerve | composed of axons of motor neurons |
| Neurotransmitter | chemicals secreted by terminal branches that aid in the transmission of an impulse across a synapse |
