Neuronal Function Flashcards
Internal transmission
Neurotransmiters must engage
Internal transmission
Neurons must be intact and have axes to glucose Via oxygen
Internal transmission
Myelin must be present
Internal transmission
Networks must connect
Functional importance of synapse 1
To influence other neurons or tissues
Functional importance of synapse 2
Using electrical impulses which cussed Neurotransmitters to be released
Functional importance of synapse 3
To make it across the synaptic cleft in order to depolarizer or hyper polarize the receiving membrane
Functional importance of synapse 4
To the point that and action potential is fired down the axon
Functional importance Of synapse 5
To fire together and wire together in order to form neural networks
Structural importance 1
The ore synaptic terminal-end if axon, a terminal bouton containing synaptic vesicles filled with Neurotransmitters
Structural importance 2
The sunspots cleft- space between axon/dendrite, or axon/muscle cell, or axon/gland cell
Structural importance of synapse 3
The post synaptic terminal- the receiving cell membrane, whichever might be the dendrite or another neuron, or the muscle cell, or gland cell
Neurons fire in response to
Stimulus
