Answer:

enclosed within axons are vesicles which are hollow spheres containing chemical messenger.

Step-by-step explanation:

A synapse is the junction between dendrites of two adjacent neurones. When an impulse reaches the synaptic knob, it stimulates vesicles enclosed within an axon to move towards the pre-synaptic membrane releasing chemical messenger, acetylcholine. This transmitter substance makes the membrane permeable.
