Review your understanding of synapse characteristics by matching the terms on the left with the correct definitions on the right. Use each term once. Thank you!!! Saved Review your understanding of synapse characteristics by matching the terms on the left with the correct definitions on the right. Use each term once. Postsynaptic density Multiple presynaptic neurons synapse on a single postsynaptic neuron. Synaptic vesicles A location where gap junctions provide a low- resistance electrical connection between two cells. Inhibitory synapse...
4. Draw a synapse between 2 neurons. Label the following: Presynaptic neuron, Postsynaptic neuron, Synaptic vesicles, Voltage-regulated calcium channel, Chemical-regulated sodium channel. 5. Draw a diagram of the preganglionic neuron, postganglionic neuron, and effector for both Sympathetic Nervous System and Parasympathetic Nervous System. indicate which neurotransmitter is released by each neuron and label the receptors at all locations for the neurotransmitter. 6. Which cells have a resting membrane potential? Which cells can have an action potential? 7. Circle which of...
Answer Thi Q. thank You The Nervous System edit) 1. The junction between one neuron and the next, or between a neuron and an effector is called: A) A synapse 8) A dendrite C) A neuotransmiter D ) A ventricle E) None of the above 2. A fast excitatory synapses follows this order A) (1) neurotransmiter released (2) diftused across the synaptic cleft to a receptor protein (3) binding of the transmitter opens pores in the ion channels and positive...
2. Curare blocks acetylcholine receptors at the motor end plate. This would result in: (1) Inability of the muscle fiber to respond to nervous stimulation (2) Increased muscle stimulation (3) Increased actylcholinesterase production (4) Lack of calcium uptake by the muscle fiber 3. The structure that is analogous to the Zline of skeletal muscle is the __ of smooth muscle. The structure that is analogous to troponin of skeletal muscle is _ muscle is ___ of smooth muscle. 4. Draw...
The Brain on Mind Altering Drugs Psychoactive drugs alter brain function by acting at synapses in the brain, where they may mimic, enhance, or block the effects of natural signaling molecules (neurotransmitters). The neurotransmitter dopamine plays a particularly important role in creating the dependency aspect of both drug and behavioral addictions. Natural behaviors which enhance survival and/or reproduction, such as eating or engaging in sex, result in a surge of dopamine. Normally, this response helps individuals learn to repeat beneficial...
Which of the following statements are accurate? Select all that apply Interneurons are responsible for analysis of stimuli and forming a circuit to respond to the stimuli. Interneurons can interact (e.g. stimulate) with muscle cells or glands. The peripheral nervous system is able to carry information to and from the central nervous system. Nerves typically collect sensory information such as light, touch, or blood pressure. Interneurons are a type of sensory neuron. Which of the following statements are accurate? select...

A) Plasma testoterone concentrations affect the rate of GnRH secretion B) Plasma calcium concentrations affect the rate of parathyroid hormone secretion C) Plasma dopamine cocentrations affect the rate of prolactin secretion. D) Sensory neural stimuli affect the rate of oxytocin secretion. E) Plasma GnRH concentrations affect the rate of FSH secretion 14. The receptive field of an afferent neuron...
