PDF Practice Exam Questions & Answers 2023/2024 Manipulations: Block glutamate release - ANSWER-Light: Neither Dark: Both Manipulations: Add AMPA receptor antagonist - ANSWER-Light: Neither Dark: OFF Manipulations: Add mGluR - ANSWER-Light: Neither Dark: ON You discover a new type of super-tasting animal. You isolate many of the neurons which express taste receptors, and expose the neurons to a variety of tastants. You find that each neuron responds strongly to only one tastant,...

An mGluR receptor on the postsynaptic cell membrane has a Go G-protein. If a neurotransmitter causes receptor activation and then Go causes a sodium channel to close, what influence is this action likely to have on membrane potential in the postsynaptic cell? Nn - A hyperpolarizing influence What is a metabotropic receptor? - a type of membrane receptor of eukaryotic cells that acts through a second messenger. What is convergence of neural input ? - several presynaptic neurons synapse with ...
