a: synaptic gap ~
b: river between cities
What:
"Neurons are like continents in that they have many nations, many states, and many cities. All are connected. The connecting area is the synapse or the synaptic gap. The synaptic gap is like a river between cities or a river that divides two states--like the Ohio River between Covington, Kentucky, and Cincinnati, Ohio. The synaptic gap is an open space between neurons. "
