What are the 7 steps for a synaptic terminal to occur?

1. The ACTION POTENTIAL signal arrives at the axon terminal (TERMINAL BOUTON) 2. The local depolarization causes CA 2+ CHANNELS to open 3. Ca 2+ enters the presynaptic cell because its concentration is GREATER outside the cell than inside 4. The Ca 2+, by binding with calmodulin, causes VESICLES filled with NEUROTRANSMITTER to migrate towards the presynaptic membrane 5. The vesicle FUSES with the presynaptic membrane 6. The presynaptic membrane and vesicle now form a continuous membrane, and the neurotransmitter is released into the SYNAPTIC CLEFT. This process is called EXOCYTOSIS. 7. The neurotransmitter DIFFUSES through the synaptic cleft and BINDS with receptor channel membranes that are located in the postsynaptic membranes.
