🧠 In this lesson with Miss Sehrish, we cover the functions of synapses and why they are essential in the nervous system. Perfect for IGCSE, GCSE, and IB Biology exam prep!

✨ What you’ll learn:

Synapses transmit signals between neurons (pre-synaptic → post-synaptic).

One-way transmission: neurotransmitters only released from pre-synaptic membrane.

Integration of signals: synapses allow summation (temporal & spatial).

Coordination: one neuron can branch to many others, amplifying signals.

Inhibition: inhibitory synapses prevent overstimulation.

Memory & learning: strengthening of synaptic connections.
