• 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.
Choose the correct statements about methamphetamine.
Responda
It increases levels of noradrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin.
It blocks the reuptake of noradrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin.
It acts in reward centres and as such is highly addictive.
It stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system.
Questão 5
Questão
Choose the incorrect statement.
Responda
Acetylcholine activates stimulus gated Na+ channels, and can be found in NMJs and the brain.
Glutamate activates stimulus gated Na+ and Ca+ channels, and is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the CNS.
GABA activates Na+ and Cl- channels, and is the most common inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS.
Questão 6
Questão
A neuron can have >50,000 synapses at its input zone.
Responda
True
False
Questão 7
Questão
Local synaptic potential (EPSPs and IPSPs) summate.
Spatial summation is integration of inputs from [blank_start]different synaptic knobs[blank_end]. (Different localisation/[blank_start]local polarisations[blank_end] of input zone.)
Temporal summation is the integration of inputs from the [blank_start]same synaptic knob[blank_end] but from different, [blank_start]short time intervals[blank_end].
Responda
different synaptic knobs
local polarisations
same synaptic knob
short time intervals
Questão 8
Questão
Local polarisations last longer than action potentials. This allows temporal summation to be effective.
Responda
True
False
Questão 9
Questão
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.
Responda
True
False
