Synapsen, for example, convey the information that the fingertip feels something via the release of neurotransmittern to the continuing nerve cell. The docking of the neurotransmitters to the receptor of the [[postsynaptic] membrane causes a change in the permeability of the cell membrane. This passes the information on to the brain, which makes us conscious of this sensation.
