Examples of 'synaptic cleft' in a sentence

Meaning of "synaptic cleft"

Synaptic cleft: The small gap between two nerve cells where neurotransmitters are released to allow nerve impulses to pass from one cell to another. This gap is a crucial part of the communication process between neurons in the nervous system
