{{Neuron map|Axon terminal}}An ''axon terminal'' (also called synaptic bouton) is the far end of the branches of an [[axon]]. It is a component of a nerve cell (neuron). An axon nerve fiber is a long, slender projection of a neuron that conducts electrical impulses away from the neuron's cell body ([[soma]]), in order to transmit those impulses to other neurons.
