Explanation:
Key points. Neurons communicate with one another at junctions called synapses. At a synapse, one neuron sends a message to a target neuron—another cell. Most synapses are chemical; these synapses communicate using chemical messengers. Other synapses are electrical; in these synapses, ions flow directly between cells.
Synapse, also called neuronal junction, the site of transmission of electric nerve impulses between two nerve cells (neurons) or between a neuron and a gland or muscle cell (effector). A synaptic connection between a neuron and a muscle cell is called a neuromuscular junction.

Answer:
Synapse can be defined as functional junction between parts of two different neurons. There is no anatomical continuity between two neurons involved in the formation of synapse.
At level of synapse, impulse gets conducted from one neuron to another due to release of neurotransmitters, like ACh, noradrenaline, serotonin, etc.
