Question 1

Habituation

Answer 1

decrease in response to repeated benign stimulus

Question 2

LTP

Answer 2

long-term potentiation - increase strength of synaptic connection, learning or cognitive

Question 3

AMPA

Answer 3

ACTION, LETR IN NA

Question 4

NMDA

Answer 4

G-PROTEIN MEDIATED LET IN CA++ FOR REMODELING CELL

Question 5

HOW IS A CELL OPENED FOR LEARNING?

Answer 5

try - glutamate released > NMDA opens - promoting learning Ca++ > gets amp in membrane > learning and getting better

Question 6

LTD

Answer 6

long-term depression, decrease ampa

Question 7

collateral sprouting

Answer 7

survivor axon to reconnect neuron by re-innervation

Question 8

regenerative sprouting

Answer 8

damaged nerve regrows cell body

Question 9

Denervation hypersensitivity

Answer 9

loss of N cell

Question 10

synaptic hyper-effectiveness

Answer 10

increased vesicles in single to try and deliver more neurotransmitters to remaining

Question 11

Unmasking of silent synapses

Answer 11

NMDA opens
AMPA flows
increased AP odds
