Hey there !

The information that is transmitted along the neurons in the form of electric impulses is called as nerve impulse.

The electric signals are transmitted from one neuron to next and to the muscles across a synapse through the release of chemicals called neurotransmitters. The axon terminal of nerve fibres contain synaptic vesicles filled with these neurotransmitters which are released in the gap called synapse. The released neurotransmitters reach to the next neuron causing changes over their and start a similar electrical impulse in a dendrite of the next neuron or action in the muscle.

Hope this helps !!

Nerve impulse is an electrical signal that travels through the nerve cells. When there is any change in our body state which is detected by the nerve receptors, they send the information or message regarding this change through nerve impulses to the brain. Synapse exists at the end of each neuron to transmit nerve impulses from one neuron to another. It permits a neuron to pass electric impulse to another cell. At the synapse the plasma membrane of signal passing neuron comes in contact to the membrane of the neuron where the signal has to be sent. The signal is then passed through the membranes to the next neuron.

hope this helps you . !!
