●What is the difference between electrical transmission and chemical transmission?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A chemical synapse is the gap between either two neurons, or a neuron and a muscle cell (these are called neuromuscular junctions). ... Electrical synapses, on the other hand, have a gap which has channel proteins connecting the two neurons, so the electrical signal can travel straight over the synapse.

Answer 2

Answer:

At electrical synapses, unlike chemical synapses, there is a direct physical connection between the presynaptic neuron and the postsynaptic neuron. Electrical synapses transmit signals more rapidly than chemical synapses do. Some synapses are both electrical and chemical.
