BIOL 1002 Chapter : CHAPTER 38 NOTES
Document Summary
Neurons conducting cells where messages are transmitted. Conducting electric pulses will flow through them. Dendrites - (receive information); cell body (integrate information; axon(conduct); synapses terminal (release information: draw a typical neuron. Cell body; dendrites (receive information); axon (received and then integrated into action. Potential (electric pulses); synaptic terminals with bulb things at ends of these called boutons, which connect to other neutrons and cells. In boutons have synaptic vesicles and inside carrying chemical messengers called. Presynaptic neuron (before synaptic cleft (line between two neutrons)), and post synaptic neuron. When two neurons form together and form a connection. Some get recycled or degraded, if not, bind to synapses of another neuron or receptors figure 38-4. On neuron can be pre or post synaptic depending on placement: describe the synaptic terminal. Myelin is the covering of axon that help to speed up conducting. Determine and signal the intensity of the stimulus. Peripheral nervous system: anything outside brain and spinal cord.
