The swollen structure present at terminal end of each branch of nerve cell called  Synaptic knob.

Definition and characteristics:

  • The bulbous structures seen at the terminal end of an axon are known as synaptic knobs.
  • Synaptic knobs are in charge of mediating the functional connection between neurons and other cells in the body.
  • Synapses are the structures that link the axons and dendrites of neighbouring neurons. They regulate the exchange of information between presynaptic and postsynaptic cells.
  • Synaptic knobs are critical in the transfer of impulses from one neuron to another across synapses via neurotransmitters.
  • Synapses are cellular junctions or connections that exist between two neurons or nerve cells, or between a neuron and a muscle cell/gland cell.
