How are neurotransmitters released into the synaptic cleft, and what happens to them after they are released? What must happen at the postsynaptic neuron to ensure binding? •Neurons are released into the synaptic cleft where the neurotransmitter diffuses throughout the space. What are the advantages and disadvantages of not having neurons connected to each other? •What role do the supporting cells play in neurotransmission? Describe the role of at least two different types of supporting cells. Are the supporting cells as important as the neurons when it comes to neural
