Q

Synaptic gap

A

Gap between neurons where information is transmitted

21
Q

Antagonist

A

Blocks the synaptic receptor

22
Q

Agonist

A

Mimics the neurotransmitter by binding to synaptic gap
Increases neurotransmitter effect

23
Q

Gilal Cells

A

Neurotransmitters nanny

24
Q

Vesicle

A

Stores neurotransmitters

25
Action potential—> In pump:
Sodium on outside and Potassium inside- goes through pump- Sodium on inside and Potassium outside
26
A stronger mylein sheeth
Makes neurons travel faster and fire faster
27
The resting potential is
-70mv
28
Excitatory makes…
The neuron fire Gluteamate GO!
29
Inhibitory
Stops neurons from firing GABA- yo Gaba Gaba at bedtime
30
Phrenology
Measuring bumps on skull to study traits
31
Depolarize
Immediately after neuron fires
32
Repolarize
Neuron recharging to fire again
33
Refractory period
Time between neurons firing
34
Reuptake
A neuron transmitter returning to vesicle
35
SSRI
Selective serotonin Reuptake inhibitors Keeps senetonin in synapsis to continue binding and making you happy
36
CNS
Brain/Spinal Cord Nervous systems decision maker Interneurons- neurons that think
37
Peripheral nervous system
All other neves besides CNS. Sensory neurons Carries messages from senses to brain
38
PNS separates into
Somatic And Autonomic Somatic controls skeletal muscles
39
Autonomic
Glands/internal organs muscles Autonomic-Inhibitory Sympathetic-Excitatory (fight or flight
40
Autonomic separates into
Parasympathetic and sympathetic Sympathetic-Fight or flight Para sympathetic- relaxation/inhibitory
41
AcH
ACTION Muscle action, memory, learning
42
Endocrine passes messages using
Hormones
43
Adrenal Gland/Pituitary Gland
Adrenaline/Epinephrine /Master Gland receives information from hypothamlus
44
Motor/Somosensory cortex
Motor-voluntary movement Somosensory-Makes you aware of movement
45
Brocas/Wernickes
Producing sound/interpreting it
46
Left Hemisphere
Speech and abstract thinking
47
Right Hemishpere
Problem solving, memory, reasoning, emotion motion CONTROLLS LEFT SIDE TRANSMITS MESSAGES THOUGH CORPUS CALLOSUM
48
Left Hemisphere
Speech, interpreting speech, comprehension, creativity abstract thinking CONTROLLS RIGHT SIDE TRANSMITS MESSAGES THOUGH CORPUS CALLOSUM
