Or in some cases they go to the dendrite of the neuron and they kind of put a paste over it so that the neurotransmitters can't connect.

有时这些药物会渗透到神经元的树突,这些药物就像是在树突上涂了一层涂料,使得神经递质无法将树突与轴突相连

It doesn't represent any particular neuron in the body, but just meant to represent functions that all of them have.

它不代表体内任何特定的神经元,只是用来表现神经元共有的一些功能

So, one of the discoveries of psychology is that the basic unit of the brain appears to be the neuron.

心理学的发现之一,就是,神经元是大脑的基本单元

The neuron is a specific sort of cell and the neuron has three major parts, as you could see illustrated here .

神经元是一种特殊的细胞,正如你们所见,神经元有三个主要部分

Between any neurons, between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another, there's a tiny gap.

在神经元之间,在一个神经元的轴突,和另一个神经元的树突之间,有一个细小的缝隙

Maybe by the different branching patterns that these processes had, or how many processes were on a different kind of neuron, you'd be able to tell something about its function and probably something about where it came from.

通过辨识分化过程中的,不同突起的分支模式,或是不同神经元各异的突起数目,也许你也能分辨出这一细胞的功能,或许还有它的由来

One is that there's a physical space in between the two cells, so the axon of what's called the pre-synaptic neuron, or the neuron that's bringing a signal into the synapse, the axon terminal is physically separated from the dendrite of the next cell.

一是两个细胞间有一定的物理空间,所谓的突触前神经元,也就是将信号传递到突触的神经元的,轴突的末梢,同下一个细胞的树突间被物理性分离开
