The neurotransmitters diffuse across the synapse to the beginning of the next neurone, where there are protein receptor molecules. Since the neurotransmitters are proteins, and well, there's a "protein receptor" molecule, they bind, a bit like enzymes in a substrate. Anyway, after they bind, the impulse is transmitted to the protein receptor cell, which moves on in the neurotransmitter of the next neurone cell. Hope this helps! It is a bit confusing, but maybe this diagram will help?

Sure! Essentially, the neurotransmitters are chemical substances. So, they are effectively only in the neurone to transport the impulse (electrical impulse). They're made in the cell body btw. So they are transported in vesicles, which are basically vacuoles (spaces in the cell) to the cell membrane at the end of the first neurone. Then they are released from the vesicle into the synapse, which is nothing but a gap between two neurones

Is it just the process of neurotransmitter you need to write about for the question??
