12 Nerve impulses are electrical messages transmitted along nerve fibres at high speed. 1m When a nerve impulse arrives the ending of an axon, it stimulates the ending to release neurotransmitters. 1m The neurotransmitters diffuse across the synapse 1m and stimulate the dendron of the next neurone to generate a nerve impulse to continue the transmission. 1m Importance: This ensures nerve impulses travel in one direction only. 1m Most neurones have more than one synapse,
