Understand that neurons communicate by transmitting signals from one neuron to another.
Recognize that the point of communication between two neurons is called a synapse.
Recall that a synapse is a specialized junction where the axon terminal of one neuron meets the dendrite or cell body of another neuron.
Note that myelin sheaths, dendritic spines, and nodes of Ranvier serve different functions related to signal transmission but are not the actual communication points between neurons.
Conclude that the correct term for the communication site between neurons is 'synapses'.
