The events at the electrical synapses occur in narrow time frame; there is no latency, no synaptic delay, and the conduction is faster, as compared to a chemical synapse. Bidirectionality is a feature of electrical synapse which is not shown by chemical synapse. Plasticity is more marked at the chemical synapses. Amplification of signal, by means such as presynaptic facilitation and divergent synaptic circuits, is a feature of the chemical synapses
