Cross Section of a Synapse

Description
The photograph from an electron microscope shows a cross section of a synapse. The omega-shaped figures are synaptic vesicles fusing with the presynaptic membranes of terminal buttons that form synapses with frog muscle. (From Heuser, J. E., in Society for Neuroscience Symposia, Vol. II, edited by W. M. Cowan and J. A. Ferrendelli. Bethesda, MD: Society for Neuroscience, 1977. Reprinted with permission.)
