Q

Criteria to determine whether a NT

A
  1. Chemical synthesized and stored in presynaptic neuron
  2. released and produces response in target cell

Q

Neurocentric history by century

A

17th Thomas Willis - behavior brain correlation, making brain parts

18th Luis Galvani - intrinsic electrical activity, necessary for movement

19th Paul Broca - functional localization in brain

20th turn - Santiago Ramon y Cajal - neuron doctrine

18
Q

Neuron Doctrine

A

Individual neurons are the singular unit of the nervous system

Nervous system is made up of discrete individual cells: neurons.

19
Q

Author and date of diversity paper
