Choose the incorrect statement.

1

A neuron can have >50,000 synapses at its input zone.

1

Local synaptic potential (EPSPs and IPSPs) summate.
Spatial summation is integration of inputs from ❌. (Different localisation/❌ of input zone.)
Temporal summation is the integration of inputs from the ❌ but from different, ❌.

different synaptic knobs

local polarisations

same synaptic knob

short time intervals

1

Local polarisations last longer than action potentials. This allows temporal summation to be effective.

1

Converging networks can amplify signals. They have few control points and can therefore allow precise control.
Diverging networks provide redundancy, making sure there is a 'back up' should another transmission fail and assuring an action is carried out.

• List the main types of neurotransmitter and name some examples. • Explain the different types of synaptic integration. • Know the two types of synaptic network and explain their different advantages.
