Epsps - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Information flows through neurons from ____ to ____ in the neuron - ANS dendrite; axon _____ bring a cell to threshold while _____ bring a cell further from threshold - ANS EPSPs; IPSPs What 3 main things is neuroplasticity capable of? - ANS - changing the properties of neurotransmission - changes in cell properties - structural/ anatomical changes of cells How does neuroplasticity change the properties of neurotransmission? (2) - ANS - change in transmitter size - change in PSP size...

effector proteins Ans: proteins that have some direct effect on the behavior of the target cell excitable dendrites Ans: Boosts EPSPs EPSP summation Ans: a simple form of synaptic integration whereby excitatory postsynaptic potentials combine to produce a larger postsynaptic depolarization synaptic integration Ans: process by which multiple synaptic potentials combine within one postsynaptic neuron voltage gated channels Ans: open and close in response to changes in membrane potential...

Biology 1107 Final Exam Study Guide (University Of Connecticut) 2024 along the length of the axon c. Action potential needs to be regenerated by the presence of more voltage gated sodium and potassium channels along the length of the axon d. So if axon is damaged, you would not have transmission of AP, it would never drive at the axon terminal and never release a neurotransmitter e. Myelin- a fatty cell type that wraps around the axon, allowing for jumping of action potential alon...

Midterm Review - CogSci Perception C126 | Questions and Correct Solutions | Graded A+ | Latest Update 2024/2025 In the correct order which way is visual information processed? - Answer -photoreceptors, ganglion cells, LGN cells, end-stopped cells A complex cell receives its input from several simple cells. When a light shines on the OFF region of the receptive field of one of the underlying simple cells, what will happen to the complex cell's response? - Answer -another simple cell tha...

psychopharmacology Objective Assessment Guide Exam Questions and Already graded Solutions and Assured Satisfactions 2024/2025 Drug X passes through the blood-brain barrier via active transport. What does this mean? - correct answer It lacks the properties for passive diffusion and must use mechanisms that penetrate endothelial cell membranes At rest, neurons have an electrical charge across the membrane of - correct answer -70 mV (resting potential), with the inside being more negative tha...

What is synaptic integration? Answer B. A process by which multiple synaptic potentials combine within one postsynaptic neuron Most IPSPs are attributable to the Answer B. opening of chloride channels. Inhibitory postsynaptic potentials differ from excitatory postsynaptic potentials most significantly in their Answer B. direction of membrane polarization. Miniature postsynaptic potentials are produced Answer C. by spontaneous release of neurotransmitter. Which of the following statem...

In temporal summation, a single presynaptic neuron stimulates the creation of action potentials in a postsynaptic neuron when it correct answer: Fires at a fast enough rate that the sum of EPSPs in the postsynaptic neuron moves above threshold A postsynaptic neuron responds to neurotransmitters released by a presynaptic neuron by creating correct answer: Either EPSPs or IPSPs Wallerian degeneration refers to correct answer: Degeneration of the distal end of axon and myelin sheath after ...
