What is sypnap tic terminal?

A synaptic terminal, also known as a synaptic bouton, is the endpoint of a neuron where it transmits signals to other neurons or target cells. It contains synaptic vesicles filled with neurotransmitters, which are released into the synaptic cleft upon stimulation. This process facilitates communication between neurons and plays a crucial role in neural signaling and processing information in the nervous system.
