Synapse
Electrical synapses can create chaotic brain activity despite their direct connections

How do electrical synapses differ from chemical synapses in signal transmission and network behavior?
Electrical synapses allow bidirectional ion flow through gap junctions, enabling rapid and sometimes chaotic network synchronization, unlike chemical synapses which use neurotransmitters for unidirectional, modulated signaling.
Electrical synapses transmit signals using neurotransmitters just like chemical synapses but at a faster rate.
Synapses only transmit signals in one direction, regardless of whether they are electrical or chemical.

Synapse
Synapses enable rapid and complex communication between neurons through chemical and electrical signals

What is a key difference between chemical and electrical synapses in terms of signal transmission?
Chemical synapses transmit signals directly through gap junctions, while electrical synapses use neurotransmitters.
Both chemical and electrical synapses transmit signals only in one direction without any bidirectional communication.
Chemical synapses transmit signals via neurotransmitters across a synaptic cleft, while electrical synapses transmit signals directly through gap junctions.
