PSY397H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Metabotropic Receptor, Granulosa Cell, Episodic Memory
Document Summary
This cartoon is more realistic about how a neuron looks in 3d space; In reality, neurons are really jam-packed; surrounded by other neurons and glial cells; this space does not exist. Purkinje cells cerebellum; which is for fine motor coordination; allows us to learn complex motor tasks; This is an actual neuron in the association cortex; every dot represents a synapse; Memory is essentially strengthening and weakening of synaptic connections; Chalkboard presentation talks about propagation of an action potential and how neurons communicate (electric signal chemical signal electrical signal chemical signal, etc. ) Na/k pump pumps out three sodium and pumps in three potassium ions; so pumps out 1. 5 times more positive charge every time; requires. Needs energy because pumping against concentration gradient. Atp has three high energy phosphate bonds that can be broken to. Disordered is always a lower energy state; more ordered is a higher. At absolute zero, atoms do not move; any temperature higher than.
