MATH 190 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Dopaminergic, Reuptake, Dendritic Spine
Document Summary
5 multiple choice questions about the workgroup in which you just participated. 6 workgroup grades are combined by taking the average of the five highest grades. (15% of final grade). The neuron (specialized cell of the nervous system) is the building block of the cns and come in many sizes and shapes. When you shine light on it you will clearly see differences between neurons that have been affected by these proteins. Canals (that can open and close) are connected and these are means of communication (golgi"s (incorrect) theory). The brain is build up of discreet units that are separated (cjal"s (correct) theory). Functional groups of neurons (neural networks) are working together for a function. No individual neuron carries out a function. Most of our neurons are with us for life. Only get new neurons in the hippocampus and olfactory cortex. Axon hillock is very sensitive (low membrane potential) and proceeds the electrical potential further through the axon.
