Document Summary
Reading guide for lesson 25 (pages 1071 1076) Explain what happens at a chemical synapse in your own words. Be sure to use the terms synaptic cleft, synaptic vesicle, and neurotransmitter. Use the text on pages 1071 to 1072 and. Answer the what if question for figure 48. 16 in the space below. Explain how postsynaptic potentials may be combined to induce an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron. Explain how ipsps can counter the effects of epsps to prevent depolarization and action potential generation in the postsynaptic neuron. Explain two ways for how neurotransmitters are involved in the termination of neuronal signaling. (see figure 48. 18 for help). Summarize some of the neurotransmitters by completing the following table. Use the text from pages 1074 to 1076 for help. Answer concept check 48. 4 questions 1 and 2 on page 1076 in the space below.
