An editable high resolution scientific image depicting Synaptic Cleft (Horizontal)

Description

The horizontal synaptic cleft is a narrow gap found between the presynaptic and postsynaptic terminals of adjacent neurons at a synapse. It serves as a physical barrier for the transmission of signals between neurons. Neurotransmitters are released by the presynaptic terminal into the synaptic cleft, diffusing across the gap to bind with receptors on the postsynaptic terminal, thereby facilitating the transfer of information between neurons.
