PSY290H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Ligand-Gated Ion Channel, Nitric Oxide, Vasopressin
Document Summary
It is the state in which both are voltage gated k+ and na+ channels are closed or closing and it is possible to reactivate them. The only problem is that at this stage, the membrane voltage is hyperpolarize. Less likely than normal to happen but it can happen. Research one of the two topics and do a critical analysis of the premise based on research. Think critically about the information presented to you. Compare what did they conclude and does that relate to what the author of the article was claiming. To what degree do the findings of the research relate to the claim of the author. Can change how we behave, feel and react. Until 1920, no way to prove that synapses were involved in communication. Prove chemicals had a role in synapses.
