Then, an action potential is generated in its axon and carried along the length of the axon. To travel from the axon of one neuron to the dendrite of another neuron, a signal must cross the gap ...

The authors explain that an action potential that reach an axon terminal emits a small electrical field as it "annihilates". This happens even though there is no gap junction, at chemical synapses.
