Document Summary

A. aplysia work: for each of the types of learning studied in aplysia, know how the experiment was done, what behavior change was measured and what neural mechanisms have been shown to mediate the learned change in behavior. Interneuron releases serotonin to sensory neuron vesicle fusion in synapse with motor neuron (classic synaptic cleft) release of glutamate binds to motor neuron classic synaptic response releases ach. Input specificity: ltp is restricted to activated synapses, consistent w/ memory storage of specific info: patient hm anterograde amnesia, impaired ltp ability, had implicit procedures but no long term memory. F. what are the mechanisms of ltp discussed in class this is a list. What is the main point of the coming to terms with fear paper: associative learning (classical condition, main point of ledoux paper is that fear and threat are different things.
