25
atom w a positive charge
proton
26
atom w a negative charge
electron
27
atom w no charge
neutron
28
what does it mean when removing an electron from an atom?
the atom is ionic
29
this has a charge, either a positive charge (if lose a charge) or a negative charge (if gain an electron) positively and negatively charged particles
ions
30
what's the importance of ions in psychology
ions cannot go through the selectively permeable membrane so they need a gate to get through
31
ions pass through this in selective permeable membrane specialized pores in the neural membrane,
ion channel
32
Why would an ion move across a membrane?
bc of an electrical gradient or concentration gradient
33
electrostatic pressure) Ions are attracted to charges of the opposite charge
electrical gradient
34
force of diffusion) when the concentration of particles is higher in one area than another
concentration gradient
35
3 ways to open an ion channel
voltage-gate ligand-gate mechanical
36
electric if there is a change in the electrical charge, then it will open the ion channel
voltage-gate
37
chemical particular molecule will bind with protein receptor that will change the shape and allow the ion to pass thru
ligand-gate
38
stretch-activated open and close in response to mechanical vibration or pressure, such as sound waves or the pressure of touch (found in sensory receptors in the skin, ear, etc.)
mechanical
39
a movement in ions creates what kind of change?
change in voltage (electrical)
40
a type of cell that provides physical and chemical support to neurons and maintain their environment like glue for cells
glial cells
41
4 types of glial cells
Oligodendrocytes Schwann cells Microglia Astrocytes
42
Internal features of a neuron
synaptic vesicles neurotransmitters microtubules golgi complex ribosomes cytoplasm ER nucleus mitochondria
43
steps of neural transmission
input vote fire output
44
types of post synaptic potentials
EPSP (excitatory) and IPSP (inhibitory)
45
SPACE--so it is different neurons (in different spaces) giving input.
spatial summation
46
TIME--so it is one neuron giving input over and over again
temporal summation
47
fatty covering over the axon that helps speed the info down the axon the little marshmallow things
myelination
48
disease affecting myelin
multiple sclerosis
49
The steady membrane potential of a neuron at rest, usually about −70 mV.
resting potential
50
In the context of membrane potentials, it is a membrane potential that is not zero.
polarized
51
decrease the resting membrane potential, from −70 to −67 mV, for example
depolarize
52
increase the resting membrane potential, from −70 to −72 mV
hyperpolarize
53
There is a brief period of about 1 to 2 milliseconds after the initiation of an AP during which it is impossible to elicit a second AP
absolute refractory period
54
the period during which it is possible to fire the neuron again but only by applying higher-than-normal levels of stimulation.
relative refractory period
55
Refractory periods are responsible for what two important characteristics of neural activity?
responsible for the fact that APs normally travel along axons in only one direction. the rate of neural firing is related to the intensity of the stimulation.
56
the gaps between adjacent myelin segments.
nodes of ranvier
57
(nodules of various shapes that are located on the surfaces of many dendrites
dendritic spine
58
short amino acid chains composed of between 3 and 36 amino acids; in effect, they are short proteins.
neuropeptides
59
neurons contain two neurotransmitters— a situation generally referred to
coexistence
60
more common; The majority of neurotransmitters, once released, are almost immediately drawn back into the pre- synaptic buttons by transporter mechanisms.
reuptake
61
other neurotransmitters are degraded (broken apart) in the synapse by the action of enzyme
enzymatic degradation
62
proteins that stimulate or inhibit biochemical reactions without being affected by them
enzymes
63
which ion gate is on the axon?
voltage-gate
64
is a domino affect to go from the beginning to end of axon Last “domino” causes vesicles to release neurotransmitter
action potential
65
where are ligand-gates located?
along the dendrites
66
at the very end of the axon terminal part of the circuit that connects sensory organs, like those that detect pain or touch, in the peripheral nervous system to the brain.
synapse
67
classes of neurotransmitters
amino acids monoamines acetylcholine neuropeptides
68
chemical messengers that your body can't function without most neurons release 2+ types chemically open ion channels
neurotransmitters
