Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Locations on a neuron into which a specific neurotransmitter fits like a key into a lock are called receptor sites. Response terminals refer to the end of a neuron where a signal is sent to another neuron or an effector cell. Neural chiasms do not exist in neuroscience terminology. Synaptic vesicles are small sacs within a terminal button that store neurotransmitters.
