PSY 102 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Synaptic Pruning, Synaptogenesis, Electroencephalography
Document Summary
Dendrites responsible for collecting the information. Soma body of the neuron and has the nucleus -> which is responsible for begins -> repolarization; it"s becoming more polar again. Hyper polarization -> more polar than before. Bubbles are called vesicles -> neural transmitters are in there; responsible. When the cell can no longer capacitate positive neurons the refractory period cell life; collects electrical communication; for changing the electrical activity to chemical activity represents executive functioning (organization, thought processing etc. ,) and motor control. Figure 3. 12 - > explains specific functions. Autonomic nervous system -> it is involuntary response of organs and glands. There are 2 divisions -> sympathetic nervous system (responsible for stress) same time. Brain and emotion system responsible for how relaxed we are (resting) sympathetic/parasympathetic nervous systems.
