2022- 2023 updated

largely the story of chemical neurotransmission Correct ans - Modern
psychopharmacology is

Anatomically, chemically, and electrically Correct ans - neurotransmission can be
described as

Neurons (nerve cells) Correct ans - Anatomical neurotransmission occurs
through

axoaxonic synapse Correct ans - synapse between axon of one neuron and axon
of another neuron

axodendritic synapse Correct ans - between axon terminals of one neuron and
dendrites of others

axosomatic synapse Correct ans - axon terminal ends on cell body (soma)

axoaxonic, axodendritic, axosomatic synapses Correct ans - Axoaxonic- The
strongest signal. "The brakes" axon connecting to another axon. They can increase or
decrease the effect of axodendritic signals by opening and closing Ca2+ channels.

Axodendritic- Most common but also the weakest. Axon connecting to the dendrite of
another cell.

Axosomatic- axon of one cell connecting to the soma of another. Axosomatic is not
selective in inhibition, it will block a signal from all dendrites on the cell where as
axodendritic will only block the effects from one synapse.

neuron malfunction Correct ans - behavioral symptoms may occur

when drugs alter the neuronal function Correct ans - behavioral symptoms may
be relieved, worsen, or be produced

en passant synapse Correct ans - axon stimulates a synapse secondarily on its
way to another neuron

Serotonin (5HT), Norepinephrine, dopamine, acetylcholine, glutamate, GABA (y-
aminobutyric acid) Correct ans - Six key neurotransmitter systems

B-endorphin Correct ans - a neurotransmitter that serves as a natural painkiller
