I hope, Janelle, that I'm not overdoing this for you. If you've got a printer, print out some of this info so you can peruse it at a leisurely pace later.
Here again is a site that talks about synapses & receptors with diagrams.

http://www.ultranet.com/~jkimball/BiologyPages/P/PNS.html#Organization_of_the_Nervous_SystemI really think Kimball's Biology Pages are good for teaching & understanding the basics of biology in easy to understand terms. If you do like these pages, here's the home page.
http://www.ultranet.com/~jkimball/BiologyPages/If you click on the letter of the word you'd like to know more about, it'll take you to an index of all the words beginning with that letter. Just scroll down the page to find the word you want. Much of it isn't about the human body, but you'll find what you need here,
